Salesforce Certified Advanced Administrator — Question 25

The Marketing Manager at Universal Containers wants to change the column headings for several of the fields on opportunity reports.
What approach should an administrator take to meet the requirements?

Answer options

• A. Use Rename Tabs and Labels to change the field labels as needed.
• B. Edit the fields available for reports section in the Opportunities report type to make the changes.
• C. Create bucket fields for each field and enter the new column heading in the bucket name field.
• D. Build a custom report type and use Display As in Edit Layouts to make the requested changes.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because creating a custom report type allows for specific customization of fields, including modifying headers. Option A does not apply to reports specifically; it relates to general labels. Option B only allows changes to the fields but not the headers. Option C is incorrect as bucket fields are not meant for changing column headers but for categorizing data.
