Question

Sales reps miss key fields when filling out an opportunity record through the sales process. Reps need to move forward in stages but are unable to enter a previous stage. Which three options should the administrator use to address this need? Choose 3 answers

Options

  • AUse validation rules.
  • BConfigure Opportunity Path.
  • CEnable guided selling.

Explanation

To ensure sales reps complete key fields and manage stage progression effectively, administrators should use validation rules, mark key fields as required on page layouts, and configure Opportunity Path with guidance for each stage.

Common mistakes.

  • C. 'Enable guided selling' is a broad concept rather than a specific, distinct declarative Salesforce feature that directly addresses the granular needs of missing key fields and stage progression in the way validation rules and Opportunity Path do.
  • E. Using a Flow to 'mark fields required' is not a standard or efficient way to enforce field requirements; field requirements are typically enforced declaratively via page layouts or validation rules.
