The best way for the business analyst to present the new feature on Opportunities to a small group of end users is to demo the new feature. A demo is a presentation that shows how a feature works or looks like in Salesforce. It can help the business analyst gather feedback from end users, validate the solution, and drive user adoption. Sharing user stories about the feature may be too abstract or vague for end users to understand or evaluate the feature. Creating a feature manual may be too detailed or technical for end users to appreciate or use the feature.

This answer describes how process mapping can help the BA get started on this project of analyzing and breaking down CK's typical sales cycle. Process mapping is a technique that involves creating a visual representation of a business process, showing its inputs, outputs, steps, actions, decisions, roles, and dependencies. Process mapping can help the BA communicate and understand how a process works in its current state, and identify areas for improvement or optimization.

This answer lists audiences, scope, inputs, outputs, and resources as the key attributes that the BA should look for when reviewing the process maps. These attributes help to define and understand a business process, and identify its purpose, boundaries, stakeholders, data, and resources.

Annotated process flows are a great way to illustrate the vision of a solution to stakeholders. They can show the current state of the process, the proposed changes, and the benefits of the changes. This can help stakeholders understand the solution and why it is needed.

Here are some additional details from Salesforce Certified Business Analyst documents and resources that support the answer:

Annotated process flowsare process flows that include additional information, such as notes, comments, and explanations.

Modifications to an existing processare changes that are made to an existing process.

Stakeholdersare people who have an interest in the success of a project.

In conclusion, annotated process flows with modifications to an existing process are a great way to illustrate the vision of a solution to stakeholders. They can show the current state of the process, the proposed changes, and the benefits of the changes. This can help stakeholders understand the solution and why it is needed.

An artifact that can help the business analyst illustrate the vision of a solution to stakeholders is annotated process flows with modifications to an existing process. Annotated process flows are diagrams that show how a process works step by step, with notes or comments that explain the logic or rationale behind each step. They can help the business analyst show how the lead routing and qualification process will change or improve with the new solution, and invite feedback or validation from stakeholders. Detailed user stories with technical documentation about the existing process are artifacts that can help the business analyst capture the requirements or specifications of the new solution, but not illustrate the vision of it. Collected pain points from people who follow the existing process are artifacts that can help the business analyst understand the problems or needs of the end users, but not illustrate the vision of the solution.

This answer suggests using live workshops to map out the sales process as the most effective activity for the BA to understand the sales process at CK. A live workshop is a collaborative session where the BA facilitates a group discussion with stakeholders or users to elicit information, generate ideas, or solve problems. A live workshop can help the BA map out the sales process by engaging participants in creating a visual representation of the process, identifying pain points and opportunities, and reaching a consensus on the current state.

The document that the business analyst should use to identify the people who can describe the business problem and provide detailed requirements is stakeholder analysis. Stakeholder analysis is a technique that identifies and evaluates the people who have an interest in or influence on a project or initiative. It can help the business analyst understand who are the key stakeholders, what are their roles and responsibilities, what are their needs and expectations, how they communicate and collaborate, etc. A RACI chart is a document that defines and clarifies the roles and responsibilities of different stakeholders in relation to specific tasks or deliverables. It can help the business analyst manage stakeholder expectations and avoid confusion or conflicts. A user story is a document that captures a requirement or feature from an end user's perspective. It can help the business analyst communicate what needs to be done and why it matters.

A process map is a visual representation of a business process that helps to engage stakeholders, identify improvements, and start the change process. By creating a process map, the business analyst can understand the current state of the process, identify pain points and opportunities for improvement, and communicate the findings and recommendations to the stakeholders. A process map also helps to initiate the change process by providing a baseline for measuring the impact of the proposed solutions.

When a business analyst finds it difficult to get a response from a subject matter expert (SME), they should escalate the concern to the SMEs' manager. This is because the SMEs' manager can help to prioritize the project, provide feedback, and ensure accountability. The business analyst should also document the communication attempts and issues, and keep the project sponsor and other stakeholders informed of the status and risks.

This answer selects Universal Process Notation (UPN) as the tool that the BA should use for their evaluation of a business process at UC. UPN is a simple and standardized way of creating process maps, using only four symbols: activity, decision, start/end, and annotation. UPN can help the BA evaluate a business process at a high level and in detail, while also keeping regulatory considerations in mind, by showing the steps, actions, decisions, roles, and dependencies of the process, and adding notes or comments to explain or clarify certain aspects.
