Salesforce Certified Data Architect — Question 25

Universal Containers (UC) has implemented Sales Cloud for its entire sales organization. UC has built a custom object called Projects__c that stores customer project details and employee billable hours.
The following requirements are needed:
1. A subset of individuals from the finance team will need access to the Projects object for reporting and adjusting employee utilization.
2. The finance users will not need access to any sales objects, but they will need to interact with the custom object.
Which license type should a data architect recommend for the finance team that best meets the requirements?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The Lightning Platform Starter license is appropriate because it grants access to custom objects like Projects__c without allowing any access to standard sales objects. The other options, such as Service Cloud and Sales Cloud, provide broader access to sales functionalities that the finance team does not require, making them unsuitable for the specified needs.
