Salesforce Certified Development Lifecycle and Deployment Architect — Question 12

Cloud Kicks is switching to Salesforce from a different CRM. They have existing datasets for all standard Salesforce objects.
In which optimized order should the architect recommend these objects be loaded?

Answer options

• A. Accounts, Contacts, Leads, Products, Opportunities, Opportunity Line Items
• B. Accounts, Contacts, Opportunities, Products, Opportunity Line Items, Leads
• C. Leads, Contacts, Accounts, Opportunities, Products, Opportunity Line Items
• D. Leads, Accounts, Contacts, Products, Opportunities, Opportunity Line Items

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct order is B because Accounts and Contacts should be loaded first to establish the foundational data relationships. Following that, Opportunities can be added, since they are dependent on Accounts and Contacts, which allows for the subsequent loading of Products and Opportunity Line Items. The other options do not respect this dependency structure.
