What the exam expects

  • Predict how Time Off Territory entries are validated with rules turned on or off, and scope rule parameters to a profile or the whole org.
  • Name the trigger handlers that enforce time-off conflicts in each direction.
  • Configure Planner Settings: scope, business hours per activity type, first day of the work week and event colours.
  • Choose calendar display and account-list options, including where mobile behaviour differs from the web.
  • Set up routines, routine sharing and general events with employee attendees.

Key terms:

  • Time Off Territory (TOT): a rep's logged time away from the territory, stored as Territory User Downtime records.
  • TOT rule: profile-level parameters that decide whether a time-off entry may coexist with other activities.
  • Planner Settings: the Admin Console page that configures the calendar for the org or one profile.
  • Routine: a saved, predefined set of visits that users apply for recurring schedules.
  • General event: a non-visit calendar event, to which users can add employees.
