Trailhead Baby

Money is on my mind... I would like a garbage truck Lego set that I spotted on Amazon this week, but Mom says that I need to do chores to earn money to buy it.  It is a difficult concept - usually I just ask for things, and they show up.  Mom has never mentioned chores when I kindly point out that we are out of pull ups or ice cream.... However, she insists that I earn the garbage truck by doing chores.   With this in mind, I decided to start on the Financial Services Cloud Specialist Superbadge.  I learned from the pre-work modules that I can set a life event, establish my household...etc.  These seem like good steps to take in order to show Mom that yes, we should buy this garbage truck... And perhaps I will do some chores as well.  I am sure that the dog needs a bath and the rugs need to be vacuumed.  Most Superbadges do not have crucial information in the pre-work! This badge is an exception. 7. Make sure My Domain is enabled and deployed to all users .   8. Enable Multiple Relatio

The weather has been too nice to be inside, so Trailhead Baby has been out and about - biking, swimming, fishing, and a little bit of boating.  Mom went a little crazy with the sunscreen (see photo), but she did let me drive the boat.  My hope is to use this experience to convince her that I should be allowed to borrow our mini-van.  If you are reading this mom - I promise to be very careful! In between my biking, swimming, fishing, and boating adventures, one of my summer goals is to pick up a few more Salesforce certs.  Trailhead Baby is already proud to be the youngest....  This month's goal was to add the Platform App Builder cert. And, yes, I did! Here's how Trailhead Baby passed the Platform App Builder exam on the first try: Step 1 Assess Skill Level to determine how much work needs to done! Practically.   How much of this Trail on Trailhead have you done? 86% Not bad! Step 2 Get some help!  I can't say enough good words about Focus On Force's exam prep materials

Today's mission: Find a pirate treasure and finish the Advanced Billing Specialist Superbadge! Did I find a treasure? Yes! Did I finish the superbadge? No! Trailhead Baby is still stuck at Challenge #9...but read on for some hints about steps 7 & 8. Here are a few error messages..... Want to get rid of this error message?  Create a Workflow rule. There should be two rule criteria. In Trailhead Baby's quest to trigger every possible error message... I did not activate my workflow rule before checking the challenge again....  (Who am I kidding? I simply forgot to activate the rule!) The secret to passing this step is these words:  ...when an invoice's due date is more than 30 days in the past More than 30 days... not 30!  Stuck?  Just write a comment with some details of what you have currently.  A pirate and Spiderman... looking for treasures in the sand....  Start step 8 by going incognito.  Trailhead Baby typically

Today was a fabulous day.. I made a huge mess with shaving cream then decided to tackle the Advanced Billing Specialist Superbadge instead of taking a nap.  I was very cranky later that evening.... Here's the error that you get when clicking "check challenge" without doing anything: If you are reading this blog, I expect that you've probably already checked out this thread on the Salesforce community... just in case you have not.... I found help for step 5 here: https://success.salesforce.com/answers?id=9063A000000eUHOQA2 Trailead Baby is very limited in what can be posted about this challenge, because it would be too easy to just give the answers away.   Here is one hint: If you have to decide whether to create a Revenue Schedule, the answer is always YES! Stuck? Just leave a comment with what you have... and you must might get a reply! Ready for step 6? Take a deep breath - This step isn't that bad.. One of Trail
