Question

A credit card company needs to implement the functionality for a service agent to process damaged or stolen credit cards. When the customers call in, the service agent must gather many pieces of information. A developer is tasked to implement this functionality. What should the developer use to satisfy this requirement in the most efficient manner?

Why each option

For a service agent to efficiently gather multiple pieces of information through a guided, interactive process, a screen-based flow is the most suitable declarative tool.

AApex trigger

An Apex trigger executes business logic in the background in response to DML events and does not provide an interactive user interface for data collection from a user.

BApproval process

An approval process is designed to manage record approvals through a predefined workflow and is not intended for initial, interactive data gathering from a user.

CScreen-based flowCorrect

A screen-based flow provides an interactive user interface that can guide a service agent through a series of steps and screens to systematically collect necessary information. This declarative approach is highly efficient for building multi-step data collection forms without requiring extensive custom code.

DLightning Component

While a custom Lightning Component could fulfill the requirement, developing a multi-step data collection form typically involves more development effort and time compared to configuring a screen-based flow, making it less efficient for this common use case.
