The objective of this assignment is to get an introduction to the Salesforce.com platform and
learn simple tasks (such as record creation, custom object, creation, and running a query). You
will need this to complete the Final Project.
Some information and terminology about the Platform:
Salesforce.com provides SaaS, which is composed of Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, Marketing
Cloud, Commerce Cloud, Analytics Cloud, IoT Cloud, App Cloud, Health Cloud, Financial
Services Cloud, Force.com, and Chatter.
Force.com provides PaaS, so that developers can crete applications that integrate into the main
Salesforce.com application.
Objects and Fields
Objects provide the structure for storing data, and they are integrated into the user interface so
that users can interact with it. The concept of object fields is comparable to that of a database
column, whereas the concept of records is similar to that of a database row.
Standard Objects are the objects that are provided by the Salesforce. Common business
objects, such as Account, Contact, Lead, and Opportunity, are examples of standard objects.
Custom Objects:
Custom objects are the objects that are unique to a particular business or industry.
Salesforce Object Query Language (SOQL) is used to form the queries for the access to the
information stored in the user environment (Org) database.
