    Hi Team
    Quick Observation
    In Service Cloud practice Test Questions, it is mentioned Email- is a medium-high-cost interaction channel.
    In the screenshot, it is Email is categorized as High-Cost Channel.
    Could you please clarify whether “Email” is a medium or high-cost channel?
    Thank you

    1. Zrna Anicic Focus Team

      Hi Jyothi, thanks for contacting us! Regarding the Email interaction channel, we can confirm that is it categorized as a high-cost channel.

      To clarify the confusion, the explanation from the question is: Chat and Email are medium and high-cost interaction channels respectively. So the same sentence mentions Chat – which is a medium cost, and Email channel which is a high cost.
      We will update this sentence to avoid further confusion.

      1. Jyothi

        Thank you Zrna for your response.
        I cross-checked the question again and let me give you the exact question.-
        Industry Knowledge Practice Exam /Question Number: 18 of 54
        What are the valid considerations regarding the use cases and benefits of using an email interaction channel for support?
        Correct answers :
        A. Cases can be created from emails
        B. Templates can be used for responses
        D. Work can be scheduled
        the explanation shows:
        Email is a medium-high-cost interaction channel, as agents have to respond to each email individually…..and the screenshot shows that Email is a High-Cost channel.
        Please clarify..
        Thank you

        1. Zrna Anicic Focus Team

          Hi Jyothi, thanks for sharing the question. As it’s seen in a screenshot and as confirmed in the Study Guide and in the comment above, you can consider an Email interaction channel as a high-cost channel. We will update the explanation.

    Hi FOF team! I’ve purchased this service cloud course! just wondering if it’s possible to have free dev Org for service cloud or can I just use my free dev Org (with only sales cloud) to study for this service cloud cert please? TIA

    1. Zrna Anicic Focus Team

      Hi Emma, thanks for purchasing our course. You will get access to Service Cloud with your developer edition out of the box, just make sure that you have Customize Application and Service Cloud User permissions. You can find all the instructions on how to set up Service Cloud here: https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.console_lex_service_setup.htm&type=5

      If you have any further questions, don’t hesitate to ask us! Good luck on your journey to becoming a Service Cloud consultant 🙂

      1. Emma

        thanks so much! I’ve also purchased the Experience cloud course, is it also out of the box as well please? TIA

          1. Emma

            thanks so much! also come to think of it, I am planning to purchase Marketing Cloud & Pardot courses as well. Wondering if I can also set up Marketing cloud in my dev org please? Thanks so much in advance.

          2. Zrna Anicic Focus Team

            Hi Emma, thanks for your interest. Unfortunately, Marketing Cloud and Pardot do not have free developer editions where users could practice. We can only recommend using Trailhead for learning about these topics. Also, we have the Marketing Cloud Email Specialist course available on our site, so if that is the direction that you would like to have in the future, you can use our course as well.

          3. Emma

            thanks so much Zrna! just added MKT course in my list!! thanks so much.
            Also do you know if we have free dev org for CPQ as well? TIA

          4. Zrna Anicic Focus Team

            Hi Emma, that’s great news, congrats, and thanks for sharing! 🙂

            Regarding CPQ, unfortunately, here on Focus on Force, we still don’t have that course, but we do hope to add it to our list soon.
            Yes, you can practice CPQ in your dev org, but it is a separate package, so you will have to sign up for a new dev org that has a prebuilt CPQ package that expires in 90 days. After 90 days, you can just sign up for a new org.

    Hi,
    Apex managed sharing is maintained across record owner changes.
    But in below link, It is mentioned that Apex managed sharing will alos be removed. Is that correct?
