Explanation
Salesforce is the system of record in the Suspect and Prospect stages of the recruitment and admissions process for the university. A system of record is a system that serves as the authoritative source of data for a given entity or process. Salesforce is the system of record in the Suspect and Prospect stages, because it stores and manages information about potential students who have expressed interest or have been identified as targets by the university, such as name, email, phone, or program of interest. The Student Information System (SIS) is the system of record in the Applicant and Matriculated stages of the recruitment and admissions process for the university. The SIS is a system that stores and manages information about students who have applied or enrolled at the university, such as ID, transcripts, test scores, or financial aid. References:
