Salesforce Administrator — Question 225

Ursa Major Solar utilizes Accounts in its Sales process; however, not all users have access to them. New users require Read access to Accounts. Additionally, four new users require Edit access.
What should an Administrator do to configure access for the new users?

Answer options

• A. Configure a profile to grant Account View access and a Permission Set to grant Account Edit access to specific users.
• B. Configure a profile to grant Account Edit access and a Permission Set to restrict Read access to specific users.
• C. Configure a sharing rule for Account View access and another sharing rule for Edit access to specific users.
• D. Configure a Permission Set to grant Account Edit access to specific users and modify the Standard User profile.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because it allows for the appropriate access levels by utilizing a profile for basic Read access while granting Edit access through a Permission Set specifically for the four users who need it. Option B incorrectly suggests restricting Read access, which is not required. Option C mentions sharing rules, which are not necessary when profiles and Permission Sets can effectively manage access. Option D involves modifying the Standard User profile, which is not the best approach for these specific access requirements.
