Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder — Question 18

Universal Containers has a custom project evaluations object used by three business teams. Business team managers have requested that project evaluations be tracked and managed independently of each other with different set of custom fields and picklist values.
What is minimally required configuration to accomplish this?

Answer options

• A. With a custom project evaluation object, create separate record types with different picklist values and page layouts for each team. Create and assign separate profiles by team.
• B. Create separate page layouts to determine the fields and picklist values for each user based on the team indicated on their user record. User field-level security to restrict access to each team's fields.
• C. Create separate custom objects to track project evaluations independently of each other with record types and page layouts. Assign custom objects permissions with three different profiles.
• D. With a custom project evaluation object, create a separate page layout for each team and assign them using a profile. Use permission sets to configure each team's field list and picklist values.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Option A is correct because it allows for the creation of separate record types and page layouts tailored to each team while also managing access through distinct profiles. Options B and D do not provide the necessary independence for picklist values, as they rely on shared layouts or user records. Option C suggests creating entirely separate custom objects, which is more complex than needed for this requirement.
