A. In each subcase type data transform, set the work urgency to the required value.
C. Select the Call superclass data transform option in each of the subcase type data transforms.

Explanation
To meet the requirement of setting work urgency to different values in each subcase type while reducing maintenance, two configuration steps can be taken. Firstly, in each subcase type data transform, set the work urgency to the required value. This ensures that the work urgency is set appropriately for each subcase type without duplicating code. Secondly, select the Call superclass data transform option in each of the subcase type data transforms. This allows the subcase types to inherit the properties set in the parent data transform, reducing the need to manually set properties that were already set in the parent data transform.

You are configuring a declarative network that contains eleven declare expressions to calculate the interest rate for a home mortgage. For example, the target value Property Tax Assessment is used as a source value when calculating the Assessed Property Value. The declare expressions use target values from other expressions to calculate their target values. The field that displays the interest rate appears on the approval form. To improve performance, how can you reduce the number of calculations?
- A.
  
  Specify backward chaining in the total interest rate declare expression.
- B.
  
  Specify forward chaining in the declare expression that calculates the total interest rate value.
- C.
  
  Apply the declare expression in the approval flow action.
- D.
  
  Calculate the total interest rate value by adding all the declare expression target property values.
Correct Answer
A. Specify backward chaining in the total interest rate declare expression.

Explanation
By specifying backward chaining in the total interest rate declare expression, the system will only calculate the interest rate when it is needed, rather than calculating it every time a change is made to any of the source values. This reduces the number of calculations and improves performance.

In a purchase order application, you have been asked to add an order total field that is used on multiple forms in the application. You want to make sure that whenever the input values change, the order total changes on all the forms. Which two of the following are reasons would you choose to use a declare expression rather than a data transform to calculate the value? (Choose Two)
- A.
  
  The system monitors input properties and determines when to update the target property value.
- B.
  
  A declare expression updates the total value on all the forms when any form containing the field is submitted.
- C.
  
  When updating a property that is calculated, you do not need to identify every calculation that updates any of the source values and manually recalculate them.
- D.
  
  A declare expression calculates a specific value that is used on multiple forms.
Correct Answer(s)
A. The system monitors input properties and determines when to update the target property value.
C. When updating a property that is calculated, you do not need to identify every calculation that updates any of the source values and manually recalculate them.

Explanation
A declare expression is preferred over a data transform in this scenario for two reasons. Firstly, the system can automatically monitor the input properties and update the target property value whenever any of the input values change. This ensures that the order total changes on all the forms without the need for manual intervention. Secondly, when using a declare expression, there is no need to identify and manually recalculate every calculation that updates the source values. This simplifies the process and reduces the chances of errors.

You are designing a travel plan application. A hotel booking step displays a form in which users select a hotel and enter their check-in and check-out dates. The application calculates and then displays the cost for the hotel room. The form also includes fields to select options, such as valet parking at an extra cost. The application totals the cost for any selected options and adds that amount to the total room cost to equal the grand total, which is displayed in a field. Which two of the following properties would you use as the target properties? (Choose Two)
- A.
  
  Total cost of options
- B.
  
  Price of each option
- C.
  
  Total cost for the hotel room
- D.
  
  Number of days at the hotel
Correct Answer(s)
A. Total cost of options
C. Total cost for the hotel room

Explanation
The target properties for this scenario would be the "Total cost of options" and the "Total cost for the hotel room". The "Total cost of options" property is needed to calculate the additional cost for selected options, such as valet parking. The "Total cost for the hotel room" property is needed to calculate the cost of the hotel room itself. Both of these properties are necessary to calculate the overall "grand total" cost that is displayed to the user.

You have a requirement to add a bank routing number field to a view. Routing numbers must contain nine digits. How would you configure the field to support this requirement?
- A.
  
  Set the minimum and maximum values to 9 in a text field.
- B.
  
  Use an edit validate rule that validates the routing number pattern.
- C.
  
  Use a decimal property type and make the field required.
- D.
  
  In an edit validate rule, configure a function to test for a routing number pattern.
Correct Answer
B. Use an edit validate rule that validates the routing number pattern.

Explanation
The correct answer is to use an edit validate rule that validates the routing number pattern. This is the most appropriate option because it ensures that the routing number entered in the field follows the required pattern of nine digits. Setting the minimum and maximum values to 9 in a text field may restrict the length of the routing number but does not guarantee that it will be in the correct format. Using a decimal property type and making the field required is not suitable for routing numbers as they are not decimal values. Configuring a function in an edit validate rule to test for a routing number pattern is redundant when there is already a built-in option to validate the pattern.

You are adding a field to your case type in which users must enter the day, month, and year they were hired before the user can submit the user form. The field type must enforce a date format. What two validation approaches would you use to meet the validation requirements? (Choose Two)
- A.
  
  Use the Required option
- B.
  
  Define the field type as a date
- C.
  
  Add Add the word Required to the field label
- D.
  
  Use the read-only option
Correct Answer(s)
A. Use the Required option
B. Define the field type as a date

Explanation
To meet the validation requirements, you would use the "Required" option to ensure that the field must be filled out before the form can be submitted. Additionally, you would define the field type as a date to enforce a specific date format for the user input. These two approaches together would help enforce the validation requirements for the field.

- E.
  
  Set the activity name column to primary importance.
Correct Answer(s)
A. Set the image column to other importance.
D. Set the check box column to secondary importance.
E. Set the activity name column to primary importance.

Explanation
The correct answer is to set the image column to other importance, set the check box column to secondary importance, and set the activity name column to primary importance. By setting the image column to other importance, it indicates that the images are not necessary when viewed on a small screen.
