Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder — Question 24

Which two statements are true about field update actions from workflow rules and approval processes? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Field updates are tracked in the History related list of a record regardless of whether or not history tracking is set for those fields.
• B. Field updates to records based on workflow rules and approval processes do not trigger Validation Rules.
• C. Field updates are not available on currency fields if the organization uses multi-currency.
• D. Field updates with "Re-evaluate Workflow Rules" selected can cause a recursive loop if the update field is included in a workflow.

Correct answer: C, D

Explanation

Option C is correct because in a multi-currency setup, field updates cannot be applied to currency fields due to potential discrepancies. Option D is also correct since selecting 'Re-evaluate Workflow Rules' can result in recursive loops if the updated field is part of a workflow. Options A and B are incorrect as field updates are recorded in the History related list only if history tracking is enabled, and they do trigger Validation Rules.
