Opportunity Funnel report can be used totrack the progress and performance of the recruitment pipeline, and identify bottlenecks or opportunities for improvement. Application Tabular report, Education History dashboard, and Program Enrollment dashboard are not report charts that can help recruiters visualize the number of prospective students at various stages in the recruitment process.

The Education Data Architecture (EDA) provides a feature to track and manage multiple addresses for contacts and accounts using the Address object1. The Address object has a field called “Inactive” that indicates whether the address is currently in use or not2. By selecting the “Inactive” checkbox on the Address record, the consultant can mark the address as inactive and have it sync to the contact record. The contact record will then show the inactive address in the Mailing Address field, with a strike-through line to indicate that itis no longer valid3.

Setting the inactive address on the contact record through integration is not a recommended solution, as itwould bypass the EDA address management feature and create inconsistency between the contact and address records. Developing a custom trigger to update the contact record is also not necessary, as EDA already provides a built-in mechanism to handle inactive addresses using the Address object.

 The action that the consultant should recommend instead of mapping prospects and students’ employers to the standard Account field in Salesforce is A.Populate the employer Affiliation record in the Primary Business Organization field1.This is because EDA uses a different account model than the standard Salesforce account model, which allows for more flexibility and scalability in capturing the complex relationships and affiliations that exist in the education sector2.

In EDA, an Account can represent different types of entities, such as an individual person, a household, an educational institution, an organization, or a course offering. Each Account can have a record type that defines its attributes and behavior. EDA also provides two custom objects, Relationship and Affiliation, that allow for creating connections between Accounts and Contacts. A Relationship is a connection between two Contacts, such as a parent-child or a mentor-mentee relationship.An Affiliation is a connection between a Contact and an Account, such as a student’s enrollment in a course offering, or an employee’s association with an organization2.

By using the Affiliation object, the system admin can link prospects and students to their employers, which are represented by Accounts with the Organization record type. The systemadmin can also specify which Affiliation is the primary one for each Contact, by populating the Primary Business Organization field on the Contact record. This field is a lookup to the Affiliation object, and it allows for displaying the employer’s name and other information on the Contact page layout.By using this approach, the system admin can avoid creating duplicate or unnecessary Accounts, and can leverage the EDA data model to capture the full network of prospects and students1.

B. Select Administrative as the Default Account Model in EDA Settings and C. Select Organization as the Default Account Model in EDA Settings are not valid actions for this scenario. The Default Account Model in EDA Settings is a setting that determines how EDA creates Accounts for new Contacts that are created in Salesforce. The Administrative Account Model creates one Account per Contact, and assigns the same name to both records. The Household Account Model creates one Account per household, and assigns a household name to the Account. The Organization Account Model creates one Account per organization, and assigns an organization name to the Account.However, these settings do not affect how EDA mapsprospects and students’ employers to the standard Account field in Salesforce, as they only apply to new Contacts and Accounts that are created in EDA3.

An app on the AppExchange is a solution that the consultant can recommend to meet the requirement of creating a declaratively configured, publicfacing form that creates data in Salesforce. An app on the AppExchange is an application that provides additional features and solutions for Salesforce. There are many apps on the AppExchange that offer form building capabilities, such as creating web forms, surveys, or quizzes, and capturing data from them in Salesforce. The consultant can help the Admissions office choose an app that meets their needs and budget. Email-to-case, Process Builder, and Salesforce Files are not solutions that can create a declaratively configured, public facing form that creates data in Salesforce. References:

Setting the Default Account Model to Household will allow the university to capture Contact’s family information using Household Accounts, which are automatically created when new Contacts are added. Setting the Default Account Model to Administrative will create Administrative Accounts, which are used to group Contacts by their affiliation to an educational institution or organization, not by their family relationship. Populating the Account field with the Household record is not a valid action because the Account field is read-only and automatically populated based on the Default Account Model. References:

The consultant should retain sharing rules during the data import because they control the access and visibility of records based on criteria such as record ownership, role hierarchy, or field values. Disabling sharing rules may cause data security or privacy issues. Workflow rules and role hierarchy are configurations that can be disabled during the data import to improve performance and avoid errors or conflicts. References:

TDTM is a feature of EDA that allows you to manage the automation and custom logic that runs when data is inserted, updated, or deleted. By disabling unnecessary code, such as trigger handlers or validation rules, you canimprove the performance and speed of the data import, avoid errors or unwanted data creation, and reduce the risk of hitting governor limits12.

Disabling sharing rules using TDTM is not a recommended action, because sharing rules are not controlled by TDTM,but by the Salesforce security model. Sharing rules are used to grant additional access to records based on criteria or ownership. Disabling them mayaffect the visibility and accessibility of the imported data for the users34.

Changing the account model to Household is not a necessary action, because the account model is a preference that depends on how the university wants to organize its contacts and accounts. EDA supports both the Administrative and Household account models, and the import file already defines the Account information. Changing the account model may cause data loss or duplication, and require additional configuration and mapping5 .

The SFDO Open Source Contributors group in the Power of Us Hub is an additional group that the consultant can recommend so the university can find and collaborate on current open source projects. The SFDO Open Source Contributors group is a group that connects users who are interested in contributing to or learning from open source projects that are supported by Salesforce.org. The SFDO Open Source Contributors group provides access to resources, events, discussions, and opportunities related to various opensource projects, such as EDA, NPSP, CumulusCI, or Metecho. The Sector: Higher Education, SFDO Major Release Announcements, and CumulusCI (CCI) groups in the Power of Us Hub are not groups that can help the university find and collaborate on current open source projects.

One benefit of Open Source Common Projects that the consultant can share with the college is that projects go through a Salesforce Security review. This means that the projects are evaluated and approved by Salesforce for their security standards and best practices. This ensures that the projects are safe and reliable for customers to use. Projects are not owned solely by Salesforce.org, but rather by the community. Projects do not focus on replacing paid solutions, but rather on enhancing existing solutions or addressing gaps. Projects do not allow only a few participants, but rather welcome anyone who wants to contribute. References:

Application documents are saved as Salesforce Files in Admissions Connect, which are attached to the Application record or the Application Material Mapping record. Document Type is a field on the Application Material Mapping object that defines the type of document required for an application requirement. Action Plan Item is an object that tracks tasks or actions related to an application or enrollment process. References:
