Salesforce Advanced Administrator Certification Tips

by | Feb 2, 2017 | , , , , , , , | 5

I took Salesforce Advanced Administrator certification exam on 31st Jan’17 and cleared it. In this post, I am going to write down how I approached this certification and my study materials as well.First, to start you, you need the Salesforce Advanced Administration Certification guide. You can download the same from here. The exam format is -Number of questions: 63Type of questions: Multiple-ChoicePassing Score: 65%Time: 90 MinutesSo basically you need to answer ~41 questions correctly. Note – You need to clear Salesforce Certified Administration Certification before this certification. Strategy:I followed the below strategy by reviewing the certification guide and bucketing the items based on their weightages. This is the formula I followed, topics with more than 10% weightage are my priority items and rest of the items are kind of last minute items to check. With the above strategy, I came up with the below list -Security and AccessSales Cloud ApplicationsService Cloud ApplicationsData ManagementChange ManagementAnalytics, Reports and DashboardsProcess AutomationBut definitely, I was not sure whether I can answer all the questions correctly from above lists. So my backup plan was to make myself comfortable with the below items as well -Extending Custom Objects and ApplicationsAuditoring and MonitoringThese two sections are comparatively very easy and easily you can answer all the questions correctly. The only section which I was not sure and didn’t put any effort at all was – Content Management....

JavaScript Tips for Visualforce Developers

by | Jan 15, 2017 | , , , | 0

When I started my career 10 years back, I was first introduced to Server Side Programming. I started developing applications using Embedded C/C++. Slowly I shifted my focus towards Client Side Programming. It always motivates me if I see the end-result of my development immediately. That is how I started digging into Client Side Programmings. I always love this below quote from one of my favorite programmers – Eric ElliottIn my initial days I still remember, it was really difficult to learn JavaScript. To me, Javascript was more like a “side” language which can help implementing those functionalities which can’t be delivered by server side programming – such as DOM manipulations, browser events and things like that. So for me sending data between server and client was always a GET and POST.But I realized the power of JavaScript very soon. Trust me, with JavaScript, you can do so many things you can’t even imagine. You can not only do Client Side operations, you can perform server-side logics as well. Yes, you hear it correctly. JavaScript for Server Side Programming. With the “node.js”  you can perform server-side computations as well. But there is even more. We can now build Isomorphic applications as well. With an Isomorphic application, your initial request from the web browser will be handled by the server, but after that, any subsequent requests will be handled by...

Salesforce Platform Developer – I Certification Tips

by | Dec 18, 2016 | , , , , , , , | 0

I have cleared another Salesforce Certification yesterday – It’s Platform Developer – I. In this post, I am going to share my study notes. Hopefully it will help others as well.If you are an experienced developer or admin having more than 6 months of experience, it is very easy to clear this certification. But if you are new to Salesforce, then I think this study note is going to help you. I found 50% – 60% questions are scenario based.During the exam, I am sure you will get multiple questions which will make you confuse in terms of more than one correct answers. My suggestion is that read the question/scenario 2-3 times, there will be one/two words which will lead to the correct answer. If you still not able to find the correct answer, mark the question for review and go to the next question. Don’t spend too much time in one question.Note – Don’t treat this as a Certification dumps. Rather the intention of the post is to share my strategy, topics I covered during my preparation.Another important point to mention here is that when I gave this certification the release from Salesforce was Winter’17. With every release, Salesforce brings new features so you need to go through the release notes as well.Let’s start by topics mentioned in the Certification Syllabus. Salesforce Fundamentals [Weighting: 10% i.e. # of Questions: 6]Describe...

🚀 Get ready for the exciting new feature coming with Salesforce's Winter '24 release! In this video, I will dive deep into how this update is set to revolutionize the way you sort list elements within your Salesforce code. 📑 With the Winter '24 release, the List class receives a significant upgrade by introducing support for the all-new Comparator interface. This powerful enhancement empowers developers to implement a wide range of sorting orders effortlessly using the List.sort() method with a Comparator parameter. 💡 I will walk you through the ins and outs of using this feature, demonstrating its incredible versatility and practicality. Whether you need to sort lists of custom objects or standard data types, the Comparator interface offers a flexible solution for every sorting scenario. 🌐 But that's not all! For those situations where you require locale-sensitive comparisons and sorting, we'll also show you how to utilize the getInstance method within the newly introduced Collator class. We'll explain why this feature is essential when dealing with internationalization and how it can enhance your applications' user experience. 🚫 However, keep in mind that locale-sensitive sorting can yield different results based on the user executing the code. Therefore, we'll discuss best practices and situations to avoid, such as using it in triggers or code where a specific sort order is expected.
