A lookup field is a type of field that allows administrators to create a relationship between two objects by linking records from one object to another object. For example, a lookup field can link an account record to a purchase record by storing the account ID on the purchase record. A lookup field allows users to select an existing record from a pop-up window or create a new record from the same window.

To use as an identifier when importing and updating records from a separate system, an administrator should use External ID field type on an object. External ID fields allow storing unique identifiers from external systems and using them for matching records during import or update operations. External ID fields can also be used for upsert operations that insert new records or update existing ones based on external ID values. For example, an administrator can create an External ID field on Account object that stores account numbers from an external ERP system and use it for importing or updating accounts from that system. Rich Text field, Record ID, and Auto-Number field are not suitable for using as identifiers when importing and updating records from a separate system.

Campaign hierarchy is a feature that allows administrators to organize campaigns into a parent-child relationship, where the parent campaign represents a larger initiative and the child campaigns represent smaller or more specific activities within that initiative. Using campaign hierarchy can help Ursa Major Solar report on campaign ROI by month and series by creating a parent campaign for the series of networking events and creating individual child campaigns for each monthly event. The parent campaign can show the aggregated metrics and ROI for the entire series, while the child campaigns can show the metrics and ROI for each month. Adding different record types for the monthly event types, creating individual campaigns that all have the same name, or configuring campaign member statuses to record which event members attended are not solutions for reporting on campaign ROI by month and series; they either do not group campaigns into a hierarchy or do not track campaign metrics or ROI.
