Salesforce Certified Advanced Administrator — Question 12
Universal Containers wants to convert a lookup relationship to a master-detail relationship.
What action should the administrator take prior to converting the relationship?
Answer options
- A. Remove roll-up summary fields on the parent prior to changing the field type.
- B. Delete the current lookup field before adding the new master-detail field.
- C. Ensure all existing records have a value in the current lookup field.
- D. Select the allow re-parenting option on the master-detail relationship field.
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is C because for a master-detail relationship, all existing records must have a value in the lookup field to ensure data integrity. Option A is incorrect as roll-up summary fields are not relevant to the conversion process. Option B is wrong because you do not need to delete the lookup field; you can convert it directly. Option D is not necessary to convert the relationship type.
