The business analyst (BA) at Northern Trail Outfitters recently configured a feature on Opportunities for the sales team. The BA plans to gather feedback from a small group of end users before rolling out the feature to the entire company.
What should the BA do to present this information?

  1. Share user stories about the feature.
  2. Demo the new feature.
  3. Create a feature manual.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The best way for the business analyst to present the new feature on Opportunities to a small group of end users is to demo the new feature. A demo is a presentation that shows how a feature works or looks like in Salesforce. It can help the business analyst gather feedback from end users, validate the solution, and drive user adoption. Sharing user stories about the feature may be too abstract or vague for end users to understand or evaluate the feature. Creating a feature manual may be too detailed or technical for end users to appreciate or use the feature.

A business analyst (BA) is working with stakeholders at Universal Containers to walk through a potential solution for the lead routing and qualification process. The solution will include automated and manual features.
Which artifact should help the BA illustrate the vision of a solution to stakeholders?

  1. Detailed user stories with technical documentation about the existing process
  2. Annotated process flows with modifications to an existing process
  3. Collected pain points from people who follow the existing process

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Annotated process flows are a great way to illustrate the vision of a solution to stakeholders. They can show the current state of the process, the proposed changes, and the benefits of the changes. This can help stakeholders understand the solution and why it is needed. Here are some additional details from Salesforce Certified Business Analyst documents and resources that support the answer:
Annotated process flows are process flows that include additional information, such as notes, comments, and explanations.
Modifications to an existing process are changes that are made to an existing process. Stakeholders are people who have an interest in the success of a project. In conclusion, annotated process flows with modifications to an existing process are a great way to illustrate the vision of a solution to stakeholders. They can show the current state of the process, the proposed changes, and the benefits of the changes. This can help stakeholders understand the solution and why it is needed.
An artifact that can help the business analyst illustrate the vision of a solution to stakeholders is annotated process flows with modifications to an existing process. Annotated process flows are diagrams that show how a process works step by step, with notes or comments that explain the logic or rationale behind each step. They can help the business analyst show how the lead routing and qualification process will change or improve with the new solution, and invite feedback or validation from stakeholders. Detailed user stories with technical documentation about the existing process are artifacts that can help the business analyst capture the requirements or specifications of the new solution, but not illustrate the vision of it. Collected pain points from people who follow the existing process are artifacts that can help the business analyst understand the problems or needs of the end users, but not illustrate the vision of the solution.
