Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder — Question 12

What is a user case for validation rules?

Answer options

• A. Ensure Zip/Postal Codes are entered in the correct formal.
• B. Restrict partner Lead visibility to the channel sales team.
• C. Prevent deals with less than a 10% discount from entering an approval process.
• D. Prevent non-managers from joining a private Chatter Group.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because validation rules are specifically designed to enforce data integrity by ensuring that certain formats, such as Zip/Postal Codes, are adhered to. The other options relate to permissions and visibility settings, which are managed through different mechanisms rather than validation rules.
