Question#1

An inventory manager at Universal Containers wants to better understand the distribution of a critical and expensive part across all inventory locations as the part is reused and restocked.
What should the Consultant leverage to meet this requirement?

A. Maintenance Plan
B. Product Item
C. Entitlement Plan
D. Assets

Explanation:
Product Items are records that track the location, quantity, and status of a product in inventory[43]. Product Items can be used to better understand the distribution of a critical and expensive part across all inventory locations as the part is reused and restocked. Maintenance Plan is a feature that defines the recurring service schedule for an asset or a product[44]. Entitlement Plan is a feature that defines the terms of support for customers such as number of cases allowed or response time[45]. Assets are records that represent products that customers have purchased and that require service[46].

Question#2

Universal Containers requires trained inspectors to make three site visits per year to inspect containers at customer sites. These visits must be created 14 days before the next suggested inspection date.
What are two ways 3 Consultant can configure Maintenance Plans to meet the requirement? Choose 2 answers

A. Associate a Required Skill called Site Visit to a Maintenance Plan.
B. Associate 2 Work Type called Site Visit to a Maintenance Plan
C. Auto-generate Work Orders with a 14 daya Generation Timeframe.
D. Auto-generate Work Orders with a 14 day Generation Horizon.

Explanation:
Maintenance Plans are records that define recurring work orders for preventive maintenance such as inspections or tune-ups[188]. Auto-generate Work Orders is a setting that enables or disables the automatic generation of work orders from maintenance plans[189]. Generation Timeframe is a setting that defines how often work orders should be generated from maintenance plans such as daily, weekly, or monthly[190]. Generation Horizon is a setting that defines how far in advance work orders should be generated from maintenance plans such as 7 days or 30 days[191]. Auto-generating Work Orders with a 14 day Generation Timeframe and a 14 day Generation Horizon would allow Universal Containers to automatically generate Work Orders 14 days before the next suggested maintenance date by creating work orders from maintenance plans every 14 days within 14 days of their scheduled date. Associating a Required Skill called Site Visit to a Maintenance Plan would not affect how far in advance work orders are generated from maintenance plans. Required Skills are fields on the maintenance plan object that indicate which skills are needed for performing preventive maintenance[192].
Associating a Work Type called Site Visit to a Maintenance Plan would not affect how far in advance work orders are generated from maintenance plans. Work Types are records that define the standard tasks and duration for a specific type of work[193].

Question#3

AW Computing groups its technicians based on seniority. The newest techs comprise Tier 1, move to Tier 2 after a year on the job, and get assigned to Tier 3 after 3 years on the job. Resources with more seniority should be considered for a job over resources with less seniority.
How should the field service administrator ensure this corporate policy is enforced considering the Customer First scheduling policy is utilized consistently except in emergency situations?

A. Create a custom number field to capture the tier number on the service resource.
B. Create a queue for each tier group within each territory on the Service Appointment object.
C. Use the Priority field on the service resource assigning Tier 3 techs the lowest number and Tier 1 techs with the highest number.
D. Make a relevance group on the work rule to filter based on the tier number and add the rule to the policy.

Explanation:
A relevance group is used to filter resources based on a custom field value. By creating a relevance group on the work rule to filter based on the tier number, the system can prioritize resources with higher seniority for a service appointment.

Question#4

Universal Containers wants to dispatch emergency work identified throughout the day that needs to be completed before lower-priority work.
What should the Consultant recommend to meet this requirement?

A. Apply the Reshuffle action within the Gantt.
B. Define a Global Optimization job to run hourly.
C. Create a custom Gantt action to call an Apex class to reschedule appointments.
D. Write a batch Apex class to unschedule low priority work orders.

Explanation:
Reshuffle is an action within the Gantt that allows rescheduling multiple service appointments at once based on predefined criteria such as emergency priority, travel time, or skills[209]. Reshuffle would allow Universal Containers to dispatch emergency work identified throughout the day that needs to be completed before lower-priority work by running a reshuffle action that prioritizes emergency work and assigns it to the best available resources[210]. Defining a Global Optimization job to run hourly would
not allow Universal Containers to dispatch emergency work identified throughout the day that needs to be completed before lower-priority work. Global Optimization is a feature that allows rescheduling multiple service appointments at once based on predefined criteria such as emergency priority, travel time, or skills[211]. Running a Global Optimization job hourly would not be responsive enough for emergency work identified throughout the day.
Creating a custom Gantt action to call an Apex class to reschedule appointments would not be necessary for Universal Containers to dispatch emergency work identified throughout the day that needs to be completed before lower-priority work. Custom Gantt actions are actions within the Gantt that can be customized using Apex code to perform specific tasks such as sending notifications or updating fields[212]. Creating a custom Gantt action would require additional development and maintenance and would not leverage the existing Reshuffle action. Writing a batch Apex class to unschedule low priority work orders would not allow Universal Containers to dispatch emergency work identified throughout the day that needs to be completed before lower-priority work. Batch Apex is a way of processing large volumes of data asynchronously using Apex code[213]. Writing a batch Apex class would require additional development and maintenance and would not leverage the existing Reshuffle action.

Question#5

An agent has to create a Work Order for a complex installation. A Work Order Line Item is created for each required component so it can be tracked and priced separately. However, a few of the components are only on the company’s Preferred Price Book while the others are on the U.S. Price Book.
Which solution should a Consultant recommend so the agent can meet this requirement?

A. Create one Work Order and add Work Order Line Items based on the Price Book selected on the Work Type.
B. Create one Work Order for each Price Book and use Work Types to assign the Price Book to each Work Order Line Item.
C. Create one Work Order and override the price on Work Order Line Items for products on the Preferred Price Book.
D. Create one Work Order for each Price Book and add Work Order Line Items to the appropriate Work Order based on its Price Book.

Explanation:
A Work Order can have only one Price Book associated with it, which is determined by the Price Book selected on the Work Type. To use products from different Price Books on the same Work Order, the price on Work Order Line Items for products on other Price Books can be overridden manually or by using automation tools such as Process Builder or Apex triggers. Creating one Work Order for each Price Book or using Work Types to assign Price Books to each Work Order Line Item would not allow using products from different Price Books on the same Work Order.
