Bob is a Salesforce system administrator. He creates a sandbox to test a feature that will require activation. Bob submits a case to Salesforce support from the production environment. Support requests the org ID of the environment that Bob would like the feature activated within. Bob can provide support the production org ID, as the sandbox and production org IDs will match.
Only in the case where the sandbox created is a developer sandbox.
Only in the case where the sandbox created is a full sandbox.
Yes, the production org ID will always match the org ID of its sandboxes.
No, the production org ID will never match the org ID of any of its sandboxes.
Incorrect
The Org ID is unique for all Salesforce environments including production and sandbox orgs.
the ans is only in the case where the sandbox created is a full sandbox.
The org id of a full sandbox will not match the org id of its production environment.
The records created within the org prior to clone will (e.g. accounts, contacts, etc.) but the org id itself will be different.
Q1. My interpretation of the question was what OrgID should Bob provide as the Org he wants feature “activated” into. I assumed he was requesting support for “activation” into Production…after having built and “tested” in Sandbox.
Good question/exercise to explain OrgIDs are all unique…but is this type of scenario confusion typical on the exam? I realize this topic is only 1%
Short answer: yes. You will need to read the actual exam questions very carefully, as wording will often play a very strong role in the way the question is asked.
Sandbox questions are not mentioned in the chapter!
Mentioned briefly in the Video link.
Hi John,
I am unable to take any quiz soonest I click on quiz I get log out also going more than 2 pages log me out also please fix this.
Thanks
This is not normal behavoir and is not being reported by any other users- can you try another browser/device?

Yes you can use imgur and post here – or feel free to email (via the contact page)
Hi John:
Any idea if Salesforce would offer default Holidays based on locale like language and currency?
That would be a nice feature. Imagine That an US based company has a lead in Brazil and 2 sales people are working on it. One is US based and the other is Brazil based, so both have different business hours and holidays. Any thoughts?
Thanks
To my knowledge that’s not likely to be offered- many companies (in the US anyway) follow different holiday schedules as well. Good thought though!
Thanks. I have done a lot of pre sales support in Latin America and some in the EMEA and that would be a nice feature.
Interesting you put the data/file question in this section, but mentioned it in the previous section:)
I am confuse too, looks like both answers are correct:
The Org ID is unique for all Salesforce environments including production and sandbox orgs.
No, the production org ID will never match the org ID of any of its sandboxes.
I’m confused by question 1.
It showing the correct answer as: “No, the production org ID will never match the org ID of any of its sandboxes.”
The result of my incorrect selection states:
“Incorrect
The Org ID is unique for all Salesforce environments including production and sandbox orgs.”
But the The Key Facts section of Company Profile for Salesforce Org id states:
“The Salesforce Org ID is unique to every Salesforce Org (regardless of edition, sandbox or production)”
This means to me that the sandbox and production would be the same? Is there a nuance in the wording I’m missing?
“No, the production org ID will never match the org ID of any of its sandboxes”
is the correct answer and is marked as such on the quiz.
Correct- the org id of a production org and sandbox would not be the same.
Hi John; can you clarify something on question 2. I agree with the answer, however am confused on the impact of Fiscal Years on Opportunity reporting as there is a note in the referenced SF training documentation as follows: “Your organization will not be able to use fiscal period columns in opportunity, opportunity with product, or opportunity with schedule reports.” So would IPI be able to report on their opportunity pipeline segmented by fiscal quarter? Thanks!
Good catch – with custom fiscal quarters enabled, it would be tough to segment the report. I’ll update the wording.
Hi There.. firstly would like to say that this site is a god send for a Salesforce Newbie like myself.. Far easier to navigate than Salesforce Partner Training pages. I was just wondering if there was any input on Sandboxes on this section, as if there was I missed it and that question completely threw me. Thanks again 🙂
There is a line item in the objectives to note the significance of the org id – sandboxes are covered but not specifically in this section.
Awesome content. Using it to prep for admin 201 in just over a week
Hi,
Can this site be used for spring/summer 2015 exams?
Regards,
Matej
Yes. It was last updated for Winter 15 and will be updated shortly for Spring 15.
Hi John,
We have created business hours name and assigned holidays to that. However, there is no member assigned to that and who will be responsible for the escalation if any?
Thanks
Business hours alone do not determine escalation – just when the timer for escalation counts. The service cloud section will discuss escalation in more detail… I would recommend reviewing that material and seeing if it answers any outstanding questions. Feel free to post there as well! Cheers,
John
Hi John,
I am not sure if the below sentence is correct or not . Please clarify.
In the quiz it is mentioned as – A recurring holiday must be added for each holiday and associated to the appropriate business hours.
Is recurring holiday not associated with the team (Business hour team name)?
Thanks.
I think we are saying the same thing? Each holiday is associated to the business hours record, which is then referenced in case escalation… does that make sense?
I must have missed something in the tutorial. Where did you cover Sandbox ID’s?
Looks like the sandbox question should be in the next section’s quizzes.
The org ID is discussed in the company profile – it is in the very first objective.
My bad
No prob 🙂
Hi Jon,
The quiz says I got question 3 wrong when I answered it correctly.
Just checked the Q, seems to work. There were two correct answers- you needed to have only those 2 selected.
Good to know about the org ID being different in any sandbox and live environment. I can see that being a trick question for sure.
hey john as per question two ids can be same if it is full sandbox license then else different?
The ID of the records copied from production to sandbox will be the same for a full sandbox, however, the org id will be different between the production and sandbox environment.
Hey John,
How big are the differences between the SFDC updates in relation to the exams? Is it minicular enough to not worry about writing after the new years?
Not sure I understand the question? The questions on this site should be similar to those on the exam
Hi John,
Giving my exams in November, 2014. Can i use this site to prepare?
Yes
Can I use this site to prepare for Summer 2014 exam?
Thanks
Yes – if the release info is not updated, there will be links to the release materials from SFDC at the end of the guide. In short, the guide will ensure that you have coverage up to the latest release.
Hi John,
In question 3 above, is it the case that both the answers below are technically correct but we should be selecting the first one because it is performed prior to the second (below)?
“Business hours must be configured to define the working hours Mon-Sun, 8a-8p.
Salesforce automatically adds holidays, simply select all that apply.”
“A recurring holiday must be added for each holiday and associated to the appropriate business hours.”
Thanks,
Emily
Salesforce does not automatically add the holidays – the administrator manually specifies the holidays. Hope that clarifies 🙂
I am planning to take ADM-201 in July 2014. Is this guide updated with Spring 2014 release?
Not currently but will be shortly; you can use the release training from SFDC to supplement this guide: http://www.salesforce.com/customer-resources/releases/spring14/release-training.jsp
Do some organizations have more than one environment and therefore several unique Org IDs? Other than a “production environment” or “sandbox environment”, are there others?
Yes many enterprise customers have several production orgs; it is not uncommon for large enterprise customers to have dozens – each with many sandboxes each.
Another nit
Salesforce automatically add holidays, simply select all that apply.
Should be
Salesforce automatically adds holidays, simply select all that apply.
Thanks updated
Hi John,
When will the content be updated with Spring 2014 realease?
Thanks
No set date, but soon. Keep in mind that SFDC hasn’t updated the exam yet either. Stay tuned!
I want to know if this Site can be used for Winter 14 Sales Force ADMIN 201 Exam.
Hi Kormal,
Yes this site content has been updated for the Winter 14 release! Cheers,
John
Where would one find the various other (sandbox) IDs? Im not sure why they shouldnt match, other than to differentiate between the two…especially in the cloud.
Hi David,
I have always gotten the sandbox ID by logging into the sandbox and going to the company information page.
The org ID must be unique for every org – this is the ID that uniquely describes the org. If you were to submit a feature request to Salesforce, you wouldn’t want two different orgs to have the same ID; there would be no easy way to differentiate between the two.
Cheers,
John
Hi John,
I am currently looking at the solution from the Quiz from Company Profile topics. I am afraid that I disagree with the answer from Question 1. Full sandboxes have the same ID as the Production environment.
Could you please clarified as I am confused?
Cheers,
Sandrine
The actual ORG ID will always be different. You are correct that when you create a full sandbox, the record IDs that are copied over will be the same. Make sense?
They mean that when the correct and incorrect answers are highlighted the text is very hard to read because it’s gray – it would help if the text was black when showing the correct and or incorrect answers.
Ah got it, thanks!
The text must be solid Black because when its shaded with color, we are not able to see the text properly.
Not sure I am following?
