An institution is experiencing record locking and sharing performance issues in a Salesforce org with the Education Data Architecture (EDA). A consultant notices there are more than 10,000 child records associated to a single parent record.
Which object should the consultant review first?
Correct Answer:
B
The consultant should review the Relationships object first when noticing that there are more than 10,000 child records associated to a single parent record for the institution that is experiencing record locking and sharing performance issues in a Salesforce org with EDA. The Relationships object is an object in EDA that allows users to store information about how two Contacts are related to each other, such as parent-child, sibling, or spouse. The Relationships object can cause record locking and sharing performance issues in a Salesforce org with EDA if there are too many child records associated to a single parent record, such as a Contact with many Relationships or Affiliations. The consultant should review the Relationships object first when noticing that there are more than 10,000 child records associated to a single parent record for the institution that is experiencing record locking and sharing performance issues in a Salesforce org with EDA by checking if there are any data skew or ownership skew issues and applying best practices to resolve them. Accounts or Affiliations are not objects that the consultant should review first when noticing that there are more than 10,000 child records associated to a single parent record for the institution that is experiencing record locking and sharing performance issues in a Salesforce org with EDA.

The Law school's dean, recruitment director, and end users want to implement Salesforce so they can have a central, shared reporting system of engagement for recruitment and admission processes and raise enrollment by 10%. The Law school plans to grow and expand its use of Salesforce to other departments in the future; however, the IT department can only support system integration.
What should the consultant discuss first with the school?
Correct Answer:
D
The consultant should discuss the capacity to administer with the school first, because this is a critical factor for a successful implementation and adoption of Salesforce. The capacity to administer means having the resources, skills, and processes to manage and maintain the Salesforce system on an ongoing basis. The consultant should assess whether the school has a dedicated Salesforce administrator or team, or whether they need to hire or train one. The consultant should also advise the school on the best practices and tools for administering Salesforce. Leadership sponsorship, business objectives, and metric identification are important factors for a successful implementation, but they are already given in the scenario, so they do not need to be discussed first by the consultant.
