A third-party form builder app and Admissions Connect are two solutions that the consultant can recommend to meet the requirement of having an online application form, automated bot service, and online application management. A third-party form builder app is an application that provides additional features and solutions for Salesforce. There are many third-party form builder apps on the AppExchange that offer online form creation and submission capabilities, such as web forms, surveys, or quizzes, and capturing data from them in Salesforce. The consultant can help the college choose an app that meets their needs and budget. Admissions Connect is a solution that extends EDA to meet the needs of higher education admissions and enrollment. Admissions Connect provides features such as automated bot service, online application management, application review, and decision delivery. Digital Engagement and Interaction Studio are not solutions that can meet the requirement of having an online application form, automated bot service, and online application management.

User contest and post go-live recap are two communication examples that the consultant can recommend to send after implementation. User contest is a type of communication that encourages users to participate in a competition or a challenge related to using Salesforce, such as completing a certain number of tasks, earning badges on Trailhead, or submitting feedback or ideas. User contest can help increase user engagement, adoption, and satisfaction with Salesforce. Post go-live recap is a type of communication that summarizes the results and outcomes of the implementation project, such as key achievements, lessons learned, success stories, or next steps. Post go-live recap can help celebrate the project completion, acknowledge the project team and stakeholders, and provide guidance for future improvements. Teaser email and project sponsor profile are two communication examples that the consultant can recommend to send before implementation.

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 system admin 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 maps prospects and students' employers to the standard Account field in Salesforce, as they only apply to new Contacts and Accounts that are created in EDA3.

The consultant should leverage the Open Date and Due Date fields to meet the requirement of making sure applications are unable to be edited after the submission deadline for the Admissions office that is using Admissions Connect to manage its student application review process. The Open Date and Due Date fields are fields on the Application object in Admissions Connect that allow users to specify when an application is open or closed for submission. The Open Date field indicates the date and time when an application can be submitted by an applicant. The Due Date field indicates the date and time when an application can no longer be submitted by an applicant. The consultant can leverage the Open Date and Due Date fields to meet the requirement of making sure applications are unable to be edited after the submission deadline for the Admissions office that is using Admissions Connect to manage its student application review process by configuring and customizing these fields to match their application deadlines and policies. Creating custom Open Date and Due Date fields, developing a custom trigger that checks the submission deadline against the current date, or activating the ApplicantCommunityHomePageController Apex class are not functionalities that the consultant should use to meet the requirement of making sure applications are unable to be edited after the submission deadline for the Admissions office that is using Admissions Connect to manage its student application review process.

The consultant should configure the Advising Pools object in Student Success Hub to meet the requirement of allowing students to schedule an appointment with any financial aid advisor for the Financial Aid department that uses Student Success Hub. The Advising Pools object is an object in Student Success Hub that allows users to create groups of advisors who share a common availability, location, or service. The Advising Pools object can help the Financial Aid department meet the requirement of allowing students to schedule an appointment with any financial aid advisor by creating an Advising Pool record for financial aid advisors and associating it with a Service record for financial aid advising. The consultant can also configure other settings such as availability, location, or capacity for the Advising Pool record. Public Groups, EDA Relationships, or Program Plans are not objects that the consultant should configure in Student Success Hub to meet the requirement of allowing students to schedule an appointment with any financial aid advisor for the Financial Aid department that uses Student Success Hub.

The State and Country Picklist feature in Salesforce allows users to select states and countries from predefined, standardized lists, instead of entering them manually into text fields2. These picklists are based on ISO-3166 standard values, which are internationally recognized codes for identifying countries and their subdivisions. Therefore, before migrating the data, the consultant should confirm that all state and country values in the source data are ISO-3166 values, otherwise they will not match the picklist values in the target environment.

Contact Multi-Addresses Enabled is a setting in EDA that allows users to store multiple addresses for a contact, such as home, work, or mailing address. This setting does not affect the migration of state and country values, as long as they are ISO-3166 values. Every contact having a state and country value is not a requirement for the migration either, as these fields are not mandatory in EDA.

Program Enrollment is an EDA object that tracks the enrollment of a student in a specific program or course of study. It can store information such as the program name, start and end dates, status, and credits earned. The consultant should use this object to meet the requirement of tracking new students and their current course of study for the Undergraduate Admissions office.Reference: [Salesforce Education Cloud Academy: Consultant Fundamentals], [EDA Data Model]

To enable external users to create and edit reports, the consultant should grant them the necessary permissions on their profile. The Create and Customize Reports permission allows users to create new reports and edit existing ones. The Report Builder permission allows users to use the report builder tool to design reports. The Edit My Reports permission allows users to edit reports that they own or have access to. The consultant should enable these permissions on the Volunteers profile to meet the requirement of the director of advancement.Reference: [Salesforce Education Cloud Academy: Consultant Fundamentals], [Report Permissions for External Users]

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 it is no longer valid3.

Setting the inactive address on the contact record through integration is not a recommended solution, as it would 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.
