An administrator is Informed that an employee has Just resigned and needs all access removed Immediately. This user is the owner of 4,000 records and the sole recipient or 57 email alerts. Management will need at least a month to find a replacement. The email administrator has already revoked their email access.

What action should be taken to ensure the user's access is immediately revoked?

Correct Answer: B
Explanation

Go into the user record and freeze the user is the action that should be taken to ensure the user's access is immediately revoked. Freezing a user is a way to temporarily prevent a user from logging in to Salesforce without deactivating their user record or changing their profile. Freezing a user can be useful when an employee has resigned or left the company and their access needs to be removed immediately. Freezing a user does not affect the ownership of records or email alerts that are assigned to them

Administrator has been tasked with creating a new custom field on the Account object called Government Der. The compliance department has determined that this field contains sensitive Information and needs to be encrypted using Classic Encryption.

How will this impact users when reading, editing, or reporting on Accounts?

Correct Answer: A

AW Computers has created a custom field called Government ID on a custom object. Most users with a custom Sales profile should be unable to access this field. A select group of Sales users called the Institutional Team should be able to access the Government ID field via reports.

How should an administrator accommodate this request?

Correct Answer: A
Explanation

A permission set is a collection of settings and permissions that give users access to various tools and functions in Salesforce. A permission set can be used to extend users' functional access without changing their profiles. You can assign permission sets to individual users or groups of users based on their business needs. In this case, you can create a permission set with Read access to the Government ID field on the custom object and assign it to the Institutional Team users who need access to this field via reports.

Person accounts were recently activated at Cloud Kicks.

There are three record types for accounts:

* B2B customer

* B2C Customer

* External Partner

There are two record types for leads:

* B2B Lead

* B2CLead

The test team finds that when the Convert button is clicked on a B2C Lead record, only the B2B Customer and External Partner account record types are available choices on the Conversion Layout.

What should the administrator do to correct this issue?

Correct Answer: B
Explanation

Building a process that updates the record type field to B2C Customer after conversion will correct this issue. The conversion layout for person accounts does not allow selecting different record types for accounts and contacts. The default record type for person accounts is determined by the organization-wide default settings. However, a process can be triggered after conversion to update the record type field based on the lead record type or other criteria.

Cloud Kicks wants its sales reps to always use the same full zip code format with a hyphen where applicable.

What should the administrator implement to help ensure consistent formatting?

Correct Answer: C
Explanation

REGEX is a function that allows administrators to check whether a text value matches a regular expression pattern. Regular expressions are a way to define complex patterns of characters using symbols and operators. REGEX can be used to enforce consistent formatting for a field value by specifying the required length, characters, and separators.

FAQ

ADX-211 Exam FAQ

Common questions about the exam itself

What is the difference between ADX-211 and the regular Administrator exam ADM-201?
ADX-211 is the advanced administrator exam that goes deeper into automation, Flow, approval processes and complex data quality scenarios. ADM-201 covers core admin skills like users, security and fields. ADX-211 assumes you already know the basics and focuses on extending and automating Salesforce.
Do I need to be a Salesforce Administrator first before I can take ADX-211?
There is no formal prerequisite, but Salesforce recommends that you have hands-on experience as a Salesforce Administrator first. If you are new to Salesforce, you should start with ADM-201 and build practical skills before attempting ADX-211.
How much time should I spend studying for ADX-211?
Most candidates spend between 6 to 8 weeks preparing for ADX-211, depending on their admin experience. If you are already working in Salesforce administration, you may prepare faster by focusing on the automation and Flow topics that you use less often.
Which topic on ADX-211 is the hardest for most candidates?
Flow and the automation order of execution trip up many candidates because they involve complex logic and multi-step scenarios. The key is to spend time building flows in a sandbox and understanding how different automation types interact with each other.
How long is the ADX-211 exam and how many questions are on it?
You have 120 minutes to complete the exam. Salesforce does not publish the exact question count, but you should pace yourself to allow time to review your answers.
What is the passing score for ADX-211?
You need to score 65% to pass ADX-211.
How long does the Advanced Administrator certification stay valid?
Your Salesforce Certified Advanced Administrator certification is valid for three years. After three years it expires and you must retake the exam to recertify.
Can I retake ADX-211 if I fail on my first attempt?
Yes, you can retake ADX-211. Salesforce allows retakes after a waiting period. Check the Salesforce exam policies for the current retake rules and any waiting period between attempts.
Is ADX-211 harder than ADM-201?
Yes, ADX-211 is more advanced and assumes you already know administrator fundamentals. It tests deeper knowledge of automation, Flow, approval processes and complex security scenarios rather than basic setup tasks.
What job role does the Salesforce Certified Advanced Administrator credential prepare me for?
The Advanced Administrator certification is designed for experienced admins who lead automation and customisation efforts. It prepares you for roles like Senior Administrator, Salesforce Architect or technical lead roles where you design solutions and mentor other admins.
