A Program Enrollment object in EDA is used to track a student's registration in an academic program or course of study, including information such as registration dates, status, credits earned, and GPA1. A Course Connection object is used to track a student's enrollment in a specific course offering, including information such as role, grade, and attendance2. An Education History object is used to track a student's previous education records, such as schools attended, degrees earned, and test scores3. Reference:

The consultant should discuss with the university that EDA picklist values for reciprocal Relationships need to be translated manually as a consideration about translating EDA into Spanish when using EDA. Translating EDA into Spanish means changing the language of EDA objects, fields, labels, or values into Spanish. EDA picklist values for reciprocal Relationships need to be translated manually as a consideration about translating EDA into Spanish when using EDA because these picklist values are not automatically translated by Salesforce's Translation Workbench tool and require manual intervention. The consultant should discuss with the university that EDA picklist values for reciprocal Relationships need to be translated manually as a consideration about translating EDA into Spanish when using EDA by explaining how to use custom labels or formula fields to translate these picklist values into Spanish. EDA picklist values are restricted to the organization's default language or Spanish is a platform-only language in EDA are not considerations about translating EDA into Spanish when using EDA.

An ETL tool is an integration approach that the consultant should recommend to populate data from the SIS to Salesforce, and automatically modify the data to correspond to values in Salesforce. An ETL tool is a software application that can extract, transform, and load data from one system to another. An ETL tool can perform data transformations such as mapping, filtering, sorting, and aggregating, to ensure that the data from the SIS matches the values in Salesforce. Lightning Connect, Salesforce Data Import Wizard, and Salesforce Data Loader are not integration approaches that can automatically modify the data to correspond to values in Salesforce. Reference:

The MBA program is the best candidate for the initial "crawl" phase because it already has a custom admission system that is integrated with the SIS, which can be leveraged for Salesforce implementation. Executive Education data is largely managed in its own system, which may require more complex integration or migration. Career Advising and Alumni Relations share systems with other university departments, which may involve more stakeholders and dependencies. Reference:

The consultant should recommend that the school of engineering should have its own Salesforce environment as a Salesforce environment strategy for the school of engineering that is interested in Salesforce and there are several other Salesforce environments across the university with varying degrees of usage and configuration, the university is largely decentralized where schools operate independently of each other and often in silos, and there is high turnover in staff and leadership. A Salesforce environment is an instance of Salesforce that contains a set of data, metadata, features, or configurations. The school of engineering should have its own Salesforce environment as a Salesforce environment strategy for the school of engineering that is interested in Salesforce and there are several other Salesforce environments across the university with varying degrees of usage and configuration, the university is largely decentralized where schools operate independently of each other and often in silos, and there is high turnover in staff and leadership by having more control, flexibility, and autonomy over their own data, metadata, features, or configurations without being affected by or affecting other schools' environments. The university should not consolidate all of the Salesforce environments, the school of engineering should not initiate a Center of Excellence (CoE), or the school of engineering should not share an existing Salesforce environment with another school as a Salesforce environment strategy for the school of engineering that is interested in Salesforce and there are several other Salesforce environments across the university with varying degrees of usage and configuration, the university is largely decentralized where schools operate independently of each other and often in silos, and there is high turnover in staff and leadership.
