Salesforce Certified Advanced Administrator — Question 68

A sales rep at AW Computing needs to give read/write access to an Account and related records to a teammate while the sales rep is on vacation.

How could the administrator enable the sales rep to give record access to a colleague?

Answer options

• A. Create an ownership-based sharing rule.
• B. Add the Manual Sharing button the page layout.
• C. Include the rep on the Opportunity Team.
• D. Enable public groups for sharing.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because ownership-based sharing rules allow users to share records based on ownership criteria, which suits the sales rep's need while on leave. Option B is incorrect as adding a Manual Sharing button does not grant the necessary access automatically. Option C does not apply since being on an Opportunity Team does not inherently provide access to the Account records. Option D is also incorrect because enabling public groups is a general sharing method but does not specifically empower the sales rep to immediately grant access to the records needed.
