Sample questions

Each Salesforce user can be assigned to how many profiles?

  1. One (Answer)
    Correct. Every user record carries a single profile.
  2. Two
    A second profile cannot be assigned; extra access comes from permission sets.
  3. Three
    The limit is one, not three.
  4. Four
    The limit is one, not four.
  5. As many as needed
    Profiles are not unlimited; permission sets are the mechanism that can be stacked.

  1. Account
    Standard object.
  2. Contact
    Standard object.
  3. Competitor (Answer)
    Correct. Not a standard object.

    Standard object.
  5. Case
    Standard object.

Two sales teams in your company must each see a different set of Opportunity Stage values. What is the right way to show each team its own stages?

  1. Change field-level security on the Stage field of Opportunity.
    Field-level security only shows or hides the whole field; it cannot filter individual picklist values.
  2. Give each team its own page layout.
    Page layouts arrange fields and sections; they do not decide which picklist values appear.
  3. Add more values to the Opportunity Stage picklist.
    Adding values to the master picklist makes them available to everyone, not to one team.
  4. Create two sales processes and map each one to the relevant profiles. (Answer)
    Correct. A sales process holds a specific set of Stages, and you assign each process to the right users through record types and profiles.
