NEW QUESTION # 61
Sales leadership at 230Cloud Kicks (CK) is concerned about the limited adoption of Salesforce at the company. Salesforce implementation includes many custom pages. Multiple users have complained about wa.t.ng a long time for key functionality to display
- A. Enable Debug Logs.
- B. Monitor the Lightning Usage App.
- C. Run the Lightning page layout.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Explanation
The business analyst should monitor the Lightning Usage App to address the concern of sales leadership about the limited adoption of Salesforce at Cloud Kicks. The Lightning Usage App is a tool that tracks and reports on how users are engaging with Salesforce in Lightning Experience. The Lightning Usage App can help measure and improve user adoption by showing metrics such as daily and monthly active users, usage by browser and device type, usage by profile and permission set, feature adoption, performance, and feedback.
The business analyst should monitor the Lightning Usage App to identify trends, patterns, issues, or opportunities related to user adoption and take actions accordingly. Running the Lightning page layout is not an action that the business analyst should take to address the concern of sales leadership about the limited adoption of Salesforce at Cloud Kicks. Running the Lightning page layout is a process that optimizes a page layout for Lightning Experience by removing unsupported components, adding supported components, and rearranging components based on best practices. Running the Lightning page layout can help improve user experience and satisfaction but does not measure or improve user adoption directly. Enabling Debug Logs is not an action that the business analyst should take to address the concern of sales leadership about the limited adoption of Salesforce at Cloud Kicks. Enabling Debug Logs is a process that captures information about database operations, system processes, and errors that occur when executing a transaction or running unit tests.
Enabling Debug Logs can help troubleshoot issues and errors but does not measure or improve user adoption directly. References:

NEW QUESTION # 63
Cloud Kicks is planning to create a new Service Cloud console app for its services team to resolve issues with delayed shipments to customers. The business analyst (BA) wrote the user stories based on a written list of requirements provided by the manager of the services team. Upon stakeholder review with the entire services team, many of the user stories were rejected and the BA had to revise them.
When the BA wrote the initial user stories, what was the likely cause of the issue?
- A. The project team failed to discuss the user stories as a group.
- B. The acceptance criteria of the user stories were too specific.
- C. The user stories focused on well-defined personas.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
The likely cause of the issue was that the project team failed to discuss the user stories as a group before writing them. This could lead to misunderstandings, misalignment, or missing information among the stakeholders and the business analyst. The best practice for writing user stories is to collaborate with all relevant stakeholders and use techniques such as brainstorming, story mapping, or story splitting to elicit and prioritize user needs. The user stories should also be validated and reviewed by all stakeholders before finalizing them. The user stories focusing on well-defined personas is not a likely cause of the issue because personas are useful tools to represent different types of users and their goals, needs, and pain points. The acceptance criteria of the user stories being too specific is not a likely cause of the issue because acceptance criteria are statements that define how to verify that a user story is completed and meets the user's expectations.

- C. Limit participation in key project discovery, requirements, and solutioning meetings to leadership. and engage the larger team to answer questions directly/ related to their roles when needed.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Explanation
The best way for a business analyst to help the team work together more effectively is to lead them in creating a team agreement that assigns project roles and outlines how the team will collaborate, disagree, develop trust, and define success. This will help them align on common goals, expectations, and norms, and resolve any conflicts or misunderstandings. Encouraging leadership to share their vision for the project and ask the larger team to focus feedback only on the key objectives, pain points, and requirements outlined by leaders may create a top-down approach that ignores other stakeholder perspectives or needs. Limiting participation in key project discovery, requirements, and solutioning meetings to leadership and engaging the larger team to answer questions directly related to their roles when needed may create a siloed approach that reduces collaboration or buy-in.
