Salesforce Administrator — Question 332

When a Salesforce user is deactivated, what happens to all of the records the user owns in Salesforce?

Answer options

• A. They are automatically assigned to another user.
• B. They are assigned to the deactivated user until reassigned.
• C. They are automatically deleted.
• D. They are automatically assigned to the administrator.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

When a Salesforce user is deactivated, their records remain associated with them until those records are manually reassigned to another user. Therefore, option B is correct. Options A and D are incorrect as the records do not get assigned automatically to another user or the administrator, and option C is wrong because the records are not deleted upon deactivation.
