Salesforce Certified Advanced Administrator — Question 29

A user changes roles from an EMEA sales representative to a US sales representative.
How will this impact the ownership-based sharing rules for the user's records?

Answer options

• A. This will affect the ownership of records for standard objects but NOT custom objects
• B. None of the ownership-based sharing rules are recalculated
• C. All of the ownership-based sharing rules are recalculated
• D. This will only affect ownership-based sharing rules if the user moves up in the role hierarchy

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because changing roles typically triggers a recalculation of ownership-based sharing rules for all records linked to the user, ensuring proper access is maintained. Options A and D are incorrect as they imply limitations that do not apply when a role change occurs, while B incorrectly states that no recalculations happen at all.
