Salesforce Review Board Exam Practice Test
Salesforce platform configuration involves translating business rules into reliable record behavior, user experiences, and deployment changes. The practice bank uses scenarios involving case routing, declarative automation, field validation, duplicate management, conditional page components, opportunity processes, dependent picklists, user groups, and metadata deployment.
Exam overview
About the Salesforce Review Board Exam
The scenarios exercise decisions about where Salesforce should enforce a rule and how users encounter it. They distinguish validation rules from page-layout requirements, criteria-based automation from custom code, and duplicate rules from general data cleanup. Other questions address routing web-to-case records to queues, tailoring Lightning pages with visibility conditions, and managing opportunity variations through record types and sales processes. Picklist dependencies and public groups connect data entry choices with collaboration and access workflows. Deployment questions involve identifying metadata that can be bundled for a change-set workflow. Use this coverage to practice matching a stated business need to the Salesforce configuration feature that fits it, while considering when the requirement applies, which users or records it affects, and how the change reaches production.
Sample Practice Questions
Review a selection from this exam's published US Practice Tests practice bank.
An administrator wants a record to be automatically assigned to a support queue when it is created from a web-to-case submission. Which configuration can route cases based on specified criteria?
Show answer
Correct answer: ACase assignment rules can evaluate case criteria and assign qualifying cases to users or queues. The other settings relate to campaign attribution, sales processes, or message content rather than case routing.
A company wants Salesforce to send a notification when a record meets specified criteria, without building custom code. Which declarative automation can perform this action?
Show answer
Correct answer: AFlow can evaluate criteria and perform actions such as sending notifications, with the appropriate flow type and configuration for the timing required.
A team needs to make a standard field required for every user whenever a record is saved, regardless of the page layout used. Which configuration is most appropriate?
Show answer
Correct answer: AA field marked required in its field definition is required across applicable record-entry experiences. Page-layout requiredness applies to that layout, while a default value does not ensure a value is always present.
A sales team needs to identify records that appear to represent the same customer before creating duplicates. Which feature can help flag potential duplicates during data entry?
Show answer
Correct answer: AMatching rules identify potential matches, and duplicate rules can alert users or control whether suspected duplicates can be saved.
A team wants a Salesforce page to show different components depending on record attributes or the user viewing it. Which feature is intended for this kind of page customization?
Show answer
Correct answer: ADynamic Forms and component visibility filters can tailor Lightning record-page fields and components according to configured criteria.
A business process requires users to enter a reason whenever they change an opportunity’s stage to Closed Lost. Which configuration is best suited to enforcing this condition when saving the record?
Show answer
Correct answer: AA validation rule evaluates a condition during saving and can display an error when required information is missing. A rule can detect the Closed Lost stage with a blank loss reason and prevent the save.
A team wants to define the stages and available fields for different kinds of opportunities, such as new business and renewals. Which combination is commonly used to support these variations?
Show answer
Correct answer: BOpportunity record types can be associated with sales processes, allowing different stage sets and business processes for different opportunity kinds. The other combinations address ownership, access, or display rather than process variations.
How to use this practice test
The free practice page draws up to 20 random questions from its 50-question bank for a session. Answer each scenario by identifying the configuration that meets its specific requirement, then use the displayed results to spot concepts to revisit, such as validation, routing, page visibility, or deployment.
Preparation tips
- For each requirement, identify whether it must be enforced at save time, presented during data entry, or triggered after record criteria are met; compare validation rules, field settings, and automation accordingly.
- Practice tracing a web-to-case scenario from submission criteria to case assignment, including when a queue is the intended destination.
- Compare duplicate rules and matching rules, and note how they help identify potential duplicate records during creation or editing.
- Review how record types, sales processes, dependent picklists, and Lightning page visibility address different kinds of variation in user workflows.
- For deployment scenarios, identify which metadata changes belong in a change set and consider the sandbox-to-production direction.
