Action Plans are a feature of Admissions Connect that allow staff to create and assign tasks to students, track their progress, and automate reminders and notifications. Action Plans can be used to streamline the Study Abroad process by creating a template of tasks that students need to complete to qualify for the program, such as submitting an application, attending an orientation, obtaining a visa, etc. Staff can then assign the Action Plan to each student who is interested in studying abroad and monitor their completion status. Action Plans can also be integrated with Salesforce Communities to provide students with a self-service portal where they can view and update their tasks, upload documents, and communicate with staff.Reference:[Admissions Connect Documentation], [Admissions Connect: Action Plans]

After installing EDA, the consultant needs to make the EDA record types available to profiles that need to access them. This is because EDA comes with several custom record types for standard objects, such as Account, Contact, Course, and Program Enrollment. These record types enable different views and fields for different types of records, such as Household, Student, Faculty, Course Offering, and Program Enrollment. By default, these record types are not assigned to any profiles, so the consultant needs to manually assign them to the appropriate profiles based on the business requirements and user roles of the university. This will ensure that the users can see and use the EDA record types and fields correctly and efficiently.Reference:Education Data Architecture Basics,Assign Record Types to Profiles

Affiliation Mappings are used to automatically create and populate the Primary Affiliation field on the Contact record based on the Account record type of the related Affiliation. For example, if a Contact has an Affiliation with an Account of record type ''Academic Program'', the Primary Affiliation field on the Contact record will be populated with that Account name. The consultant can go to Affiliation Mappings in EDA Settings to configure which Account record types should trigger this behavior and which fields should be used to store the Primary Affiliation.Reference:

Sales Cloud is a CRM solution that helps sales teams manage their sales processes, from lead generation to closing deals. Sales Cloud can track investment companies and their contacts, leads, opportunities, and activities, as well as provide reports and dashboards to monitor performance and revenue. Sales Cloud can also integrate with other Salesforce products, such as Marketing Cloud and Service Cloud, to create a unified customer experience. Sales Cloud is suitable for UIS because it operates independently of the university and does not need the specific features of Education Cloud or Financial Services Cloud, which are designed for higher education institutions and financial services providers, respectively. Heroku is a cloud platform that allows developers to build, run, and scale applications, but it is not a CRM solution by itself.Reference:[Sales Cloud Overview], [Sales Cloud Features], [Sales Cloud Pricing]

The email campaigns can also be personalized with dynamic content, such as student names, program names, deadlines, etc. Additionally, the Admissions office can monitor and analyze the performance of the email campaigns, such as open rates, click rates, conversions, etc., and optimize them accordingly.Reference:Journey Builder Basics,Salesforce Campaigns,Create and Send Targeted Email Campaigns

According to the Salesforce Education Cloud Consultant documents, the EDA Setting for Simple Address Change Treated as Update allows the system to update existing address records when a user makes a minor change to an address, such as correcting a typo or adding an apartment number. This prevents the creation of duplicate address records and ensures data quality. If this setting is disabled, the system will create a new address record whenever an address is changed, even if the change is minor.Reference:
