Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder — Question 20

Which two will prevent a formula field from being referenced by a Roll-Up Summary field? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. A cross-object workflow updating a field referenced by the formula field.
• B. The CASE() function in the formula field.
• C. The NOW() function in the formula field
• D. A cross-object field reference in the formula field.

Correct answer: C, D

Explanation

The NOW() function and a cross-object field reference in the formula field both prevent a Roll-Up Summary field from being referenced because they introduce dynamic or cross-object elements that are incompatible with Roll-Up Summaries. In contrast, a cross-object workflow updating a field or using the CASE() function does not inherently prevent referencing by Roll-Up Summaries.
