Exam Certified-Business-Analyst Topic 5 Question 140 Discussion

Actual exam question for Salesforce's Certified-Business-Analyst exam
Question #: 140
Topic #: 5
A business analyst (BA) at Universal Containers had a meeting with sales and service reps to gather requirements around contact management for a new Salesforce implementation. A sales rep wants a place to capture the names of the contact's spouse and children to help build the relationship. The BA writes the following user story.
"As a user, I need to be able to record a contact's title and role as separate data points so I know who to address for various needs of the account.'' Who should be listed as the persona?

Suggested Answer: A Vote an answer

The persona that should be listed in this user story is sales rep. A persona is a fictional representation of a user role or group who will benefit from a feature or functionality. It helps describe who the user is, what they want or need, and why they want or need it. The persona should be specific enough to capture the characteristics and goals of the user group, but not too specific that it excludes other potential users. The persona that should be listed in this user story is sales rep because they are the ones who want to capture the names of the contact's spouse and children to help build the relationship. Contact is not a persona that should be listed in this user story because they are not the ones who will use or benefit from this feature or functionality. They are the object of the feature or functionality, not the subject. Service rep is not a persona that should be listed in this user story because they are not the ones who want or need this feature or functionality. They may have different goals or expectations than sales reps when it comes to contact management. References:
