newbie question
Hi,
I am newbie in salesforce platform application development.
I was going through applications available in appexchange most of them have some common keywords used
like accounts,leads,contacts,cases,opportunity etc.
as a developer i only know them as standard objects available in salesforce platform
I have a doubt that are all these applications are like add ons to salesforce "Sales Cloud" ?
if yes where can i get full functionality of "Sales cloud".
Please help me out in this.
Thanks.
A brief description of all Objects can be found at:
http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/Content/sforce_api_objects_list.htm
You can drill deep into each object to study more(check for Objects which are contained in Sales Cloud if you wish to study specific Objects)..
To understand how relationships are build within Salesforce, i would recommend you to go through https://help.salesforce.com/HTViewHelpDoc?id=overview_of_custom_object_relationships.htm&language=en_US
Once you know what Objects store and how they are related to each other - it should be easy to customize and implement..
Hope this helps!

Hi,
Salesforce Sales Cloud is a complete package to manage your Organization's Sales - this includes Standard Objects - Accounts, Contacts, Opportunities, Leads etc.
I would suggest you to sign up for a free trial for Sale Cloud and understand how the Sales Application works:

Thanks for the reply.
means as a salesforce developer i should know the working of sales cloud . Becuase most of the requirements will be based on this only. am i correct?
I would put it this way -
You need to know the relationships between the Standard Objects used in Sales cloud(visually defined well on the link: http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/api/Content/data_model.htm) to easily work with the objects.
Would suggest you to go through and understand the sales schema so at the time of implementation of any requirement - you will know how objects and records are linked to each other.
Its little bit difficult to understand it from diagrams only , is there some source where detail description is given about sales schema?
