Book is very informative and thoroughly written, someone in the reviews mention not being able to see the screenshots on the kindle version .... there are settings to enlarge the screenshots so your able to see what is actually on it. The kindle version is great, I haven't had an issue with it.( I stand corrected the screenshots are not readable even if you enlarge them... would need to update to correct this error in the kindle version.)

I have found this to be a very well organized, extensive, and helpful guide for preparing for the Salesforce Administrator Certification exam.Lightning is referenced in several areas of the book; in addition, there is a complete chapter on Lightning Experience which covers differences between Classic and Lightning, benefits of migrating to Lightning, transitioning to Lightning, and more.Be sure to utilize Amazon's "Look Inside!" feature on this page and view the complete table of contents.

Seems when I want to look something up .... it's not in the book. It did serve as a good introduction. Wrote it off as a business expense.

This is a thick book. I was surprised. There is a ton of information in it, however, it's mostly outdated since it is written for Salesforce Classic. With that said, there is good information on how the Salesforce system works and that's one reason I think it's "okay" to have on the shelf. Hopefully, it will be updated to conform to Lightning Experience.

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

  • If you live in Mexico, and the declared value of your ordered items is over $ 50, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 19% which will be $ 9.50 to the courier service.
  • Whereas if you live in Turkey, and the declared value of your ordered items is over € 22, for you to receive a package, you will have to pay additional import tax of 18% which will be € 3.96 to the courier service.
