ABC Company wants to automate the sending of shipping notices and a customer survey.

* Shipping notices will be sent once a day.

* The shipping file will be placed on the FTP some time after 4:00 p.m.

* The shipping data will be sorted in the Shipping Notice data extension.

* A field in the data extension will contain the shipping date.

* The survey needs to be sent at 9:00 a.m., exactly 10 days after the customer's order ships.

Which workflow would most effectively enable ABC Company to do this?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

If a question is related to automation and it mentions that a file will be available in the FTP always at a specific time, your answer will be an option with a scheduled automation. Scheduled automations are used when you know the time a file is pushed into FTP and it always runs at a scheduled time. If a question is related to automation and there is an uncertainty when the file will be pushed to FTP (ex; a day before last working day / if a date falls on a weekend, it will be available on last Friday etc.), your answer will be an option with a Triggered Automation.

Triggered Automations are fired as soon as a file hits a specific location within FTP. Transfer activity is involved when file is encrypted.

Is it really necessary to send the survey exactly 10 days later?

I recall a practice question where timing was crucial. I wonder if Automation A would be too late for the survey since it sends emails after the shipping notices.

I feel like Automation C could work too, since it has two scheduled automations, but I'm not confident about the timing for the survey.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about triggered automations being more effective for immediate responses. Maybe Automation D?

I think Automation B might be the right choice since it runs daily and aligns with the shipping notices being sent after 4 PM.

Okay, the key things I need to focus on are making sure the ID number can't be changed by users and that it's masked except for the last two digits. I think the Shield Platform Encryption and Field Encryption Policy options are the way to go.

Okay, I think I've got it. The `transform()` function is adding 1 to each element in `v1` and storing the result in `v2`. Then the `for_each()` is printing the elements of `v2` in reverse order. The answer should be B.
