Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder — Question 260

Universal Containers needs to flag Leads with one or more business areas. They need to add a field to capture these to the Lead Record. There is no need to report on this field.
What is the appropriate field type?

Answer options

• A. Radio Buttons (Multi-Select)
• B. Picklist
• C. Picklist (Multi-Select)
• D. Text Area

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Picklist (Multi-Select), as it allows users to select multiple business areas from a predefined list, aligning with the requirement. Option A, Radio Buttons (Multi-Select) is incorrect since radio buttons do not support multiple selections, while B, Picklist, only allows a single selection, and D, Text Area, is not suitable for categorization as it is meant for free text input.
