Scenarios are free-form exercises that are designed to be practiced as if you were the system administrator responsible for an implementation. Try to solve the scenario in your practice org (see Getting Started – Free if you do not have a practice org). Once solved, or if you need help, turn the page for the solution.

Hi John
Along with some other users, I found the instructions lacked clarity as an Account Number field is already created. I think some more direction would be nice e.g. “Create a new custom field to identify the Account number”
Other than that, great job! Just keep creating more quiz Qs!!!

That is intentional, but thanks for the feedback. When a biz user comes to you, they don’t know about the standard field either… that said I will think about the wording on a few of these when revisiting the materials
Why i am not able to login to User Interface Scenario and Quiz
Content past “Data Model” requires a paid account – have you purchased the full guide?
I was able to do this, but am having some trouble with the account page layouts. Where do you navigate to see the page layout for creating a new account? I am able to find the page layout that displays all of the information once the account is created/saved. Thanks
Go to the page layout assignment to see which layout is assigned to each profile. You won’t see formula fields when you create a record- the formula is only calculated after the record is saved.
This is confusing it’s not clear you’re asking for a customer number it seems you’re asking for an account number which is a standard field and can’t be edited.
Account number can be edited if you enable the field level security, but it would never support the ability to auto-number. Another alternative would be to use an autonumber field and an workflow rule to copy the value to the account number. I find these type of ambiguities prevalent in day to day life as a consultant/admin, which is why there are some of them in this guide.
Typo:
Second sentence under “Scenario” – This will “allows”…
Thanks, updated
