Topic #: 5
[All PL-200 Questions]

HOTSPOT -
You have a business process flow (BPF) that interacts with the Account entity.
You modify the BPF and add a new stage at the beginning.
You need to identify the impact of the new version on the existing account records.
What is the outcome in each scenario? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer:
Box 1: Existing accounts show the new BPF.
When an entity record is being created and if there are multiple BPFs defined on that entity. The system would do the following:
If the ProcessId field is set to Guid.Empty. The system will skip defaulting the BPF on that instance.
If the ProcessId field is set to specific BPF entity reference. The system will default to the specified BPF.
If the ProcessId field on the record is not set. The system will default the BPF.
Box 2: No BPF is linked to a new account.
Note: A business process flow definition is represented as a custom entity and an instance of a process is stored as a record within that entity. Each record is associated with a data record (such as an Account, Contact, Lead, or Opportunity) and in case of cross-entity processes, with a data record for each participating entity.

I think both scenarios show the new BPF because it says you're "Modifying" the BPF, not adding a new BPF.

Just Tested. I couldn't put the new stage as Stage 1, earliest I could do was Stage 2. Both Existing and New records show the new MODIFIED BPF.

I tested as well and you cannot add a new stage at the beginning. If this is on my test I will certainly tag it to provide feedback!

as I understood the question, you don't add a new bpf (which would create a new entity: beware if your developer deletes and re-creates a new BPF because it's faster and you have ETL processes... with the deployment you may lose data if you delete the old BPF). Hence, there is no new and no old BPF. Maybe there are old instances of BPF (on records already existing).

I can confirm that you cannot add a stage before the first stage. True still in 2024. if ever you would have to add a stage before the first stage, you are doomed. Maybe make an null stage, and begin with stage 1 afterwards? for the existing records, it just fills the stage added as completed, if your process session is already after the stage added, if it is on or before, the new stage added, the stage is just open and eligible to be made. (i made a BPF with 3 stages and added for each stage a lead, including last stage + finished) added a stage after 1rst stage

1) a 2) c 2 b is wrong because the data already existing with the BPF session active has the new stage check-marked or not depending if you have gone past that stage or not. but it is added in any case as a stage.

c is correct and affimative for 1 specific scenario. it is a bit short as it is not saying someting to old accounts, but that is not wrong.

If you read 'New' as 'New version' of the BPF. It will be: 1. Existing accounts show the new BPF. 2. The new BPF is showing in a new account.

I just tested two insert a Stage on first possible position (at the beginning must perhaps not be interpreted as the first position before all other Stages?) after the first Stage. The new BPF was displayed on both existing and new records.

This is such a weird question bc you can't add a new stage at the BEGINNING of a BPF. To do what is required would mean to duplicate the current first stage and then modify the previous first stage to create the "new" first stage. Correct answer is that both new and old accounts will display the updated, "new" BPF. Tested it in my demo instance.
