The consultant should configure a security setting to create a Program Plan sharing rule to provide Read access based on record type for the system admin who wants to use the recommended setup for external users when implementing Student Success Hub and Pathways in a new org for the Undergraduate Advising department. A sharing rule is a security setting that allows users to extend sharing access to users in public groups, roles, or territories. A Program Plan sharing rule can help the system admin provide Read access to external users based on record type by granting access to specific Program Plan records that are relevant or appropriate for external users, such as students or advisors. Creating an Account sharing rule to provide Read access based on record type, changing the default Program Plan sharing setting to Private, or creating a custom Permission Set for external users are not security settings that the consultant should configure for the system admin who wants to use the recommended setup for external users when implementing Student Success Hub and Pathways in a new org for the Undergraduate Advising department.

The consultant should leverage the existing flow Sample: Application Auto Admit to automatically admit applicants if they meet certain criteria for the community college that would like to use Admissions Connect. A flow is a tool that allows users to automate business processes by guiding users through screens, collecting data, or executing actions. Sample: Application Auto Admit is an existing flow in Admissions Connect that allows users to automatically admit applicants if they meet certain criteria, such as GPA or test scores. The consultant can leverage the existing flow Sample: Application Auto Admit to automatically admit applicants if they meet certain criteria for the community college that would like to use Admissions Connect by configuring and customizing the flow to match their admission requirements and policies. Creating a new flow, activating the ApplicantCommunityHomePageController Apex class, or developing a custom trigger that checks the submission deadline against the current date are not things that the consultant should do to automatically admit applicants if they meet certain criteria for the community college that would like to use Admissions Connect.

The best solution for the Recruitment and Admissions office to use Salesforce to track prospective students, recruitment events, student applications, digital engagement, and interactions with prospects on their mobile devices is C. Einstein Bots12. Einstein Bots are chatbots that use artificial intelligence (AI) to automate conversations with prospective students on various channels, such as SMS, social media, and email. They can provide information, answer questions, collect data, and hand off the conversation to a human agent if needed. Einstein Bots can help the Recruitment and Admissions office to track digital engagement and interactions with prospects on their mobile devices, and improve the student experience12.

A third-party app is not a Salesforce solution and may not be compatible with the Salesforce platform or the Education Data Architecture (EDA) that the Recruitment and Admissions office uses. Salesforce Maps is a location intelligence solution that helps sales and service teams optimize their territories, routes, and schedules3. It is not directly relevant to the scenario described in the question.

The consultant should recommend to manage course payments in the transaction system as a data management strategy for course payment information. This means that the course payment information will not be stored or processed in Salesforce or Pardot, but rather in a separate system that is designed for handling transactions. This can help the system admin keep Salesforce clean and focused on CRM data for reports and automation, and avoid data duplication, integration issues, or security risks. Migrating course payments to Pardot and Salesforce, managing course payments in the transaction system and Pardot, or integrating course payments from Salesforce to the transaction system are not data management strategies that can help the system admin keep Salesforce clean and focused on CRM data for reports and automation.

Course Connection, Attendance Event, and Time Block are not EDA objects that indicate a class is available for a given term.

Marketing Cloud also provides features such as Business Units and Roles, which can help control access to data, content, subscribers, reports, and settings for each program staff.

The system admin should consider joining the Open Source Commons & Community Sprints group in the Power of Us Hub as a next step for their custom solution idea. The Open Source Commons & Community Sprints 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 Open Source Commons & Community Sprints group provides access to resources, events, discussions, and opportunities related to various open source projects, such as EDA, NPSP, CumulusCI, or Metecho. The system admin can join the group and share their idea with other users who may want to collaborate on it or provide feedback. Posting the idea in the Trailblazer Idea Exchange, downloading and installing the project from GitHub, or asking colleagues to sign a nondisclosure agreement are not next steps that the system admin should consider for their custom solution idea.
