Question #: 60
Topic #: 2

UC is migrating data from legacy system to SF. UC would like to preserve the following information on records being migrated:

Date time stamps for created date and last modified date.

Ownership of records belonging to inactive users being migrated to Salesforce.

Which 2 solutions should a data architect recommends to preserve the date timestamps and ownership on records? Choose 2 answers.

ALog a case with SF to update these fields

BEnable update records with Inactive Owners Permission

CEnable Set Audit fields upon Record Creation Permission

DEnable modify all and view all permission.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B, C

The two solutions that a data architect should recommend to preserve the date timestamps and ownership on records being migrated are:

Enable update records with Inactive Owners Permission: This permission allows users to update record owner and sharing-based records with inactive owners.This can help preserve the original ownership of records that belong to users who are no longer active in Salesforce8.

Enable Set Audit fields upon Record Creation Permission: This permission allows users to set audit fields (such as Created By or Last Modified By) when they create a record via API importing tools like Data Loader.This can help preserve the original date timestamps of records that were created or modified in another system9.

Log a case with SF to update these fields is not a good solution because it is not necessary or feasible to ask Salesforce support to update these fields manually or programmatically.Enable modify all and view all permission is not a good solution because it does not affect the ability to preserve the date timestamps and ownership on records, but rather grants users access to all records regardless of sharing settings

I think A and C are the best solutions to ensure the date timestamps and ownership are preserved during the migration.

What is this, a game of Salesforce Tetris? C and B, no doubt. Let's not make a mess of this migration, folks.

I'm all about that Option C - setting those audit fields on creation is the way to go. Keeps things nice and tidy.

I'm not sure about D, but C definitely seems like a good option to preserve the date timestamps.

Hmm, I'm thinking C and maybe B. Can't have those timestamps and ownership details getting lost in the migration, you know?

D? Really? That's like using a flamethrower to light a candle. Overkill much?
