Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder — Question 356

Universal Containers sells to three different types of organizations: Partner, Enterprise, and Small Business. Some of the information collected about each organization overlaps; however, there are also unique attributes to each type of organization that need to be tracked, some of which are required.
What solution meets these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Three different sections on an Account page layout, which each section displaying the relevant fields for that organization.
• B. A Partner Community for partner organization records, and two lead record types for Enterprise and Small Business organizations.
• C. Three Account record types, each with its own page layout to display the relevant fields for that type of organization.
• D. Three custom objects for the three organization types, each with custom fields that pertain to that type of organization.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because using three Account record types allows for tailored page layouts that can effectively show both shared and unique fields specific to each organization type. Option A does not provide the necessary flexibility in field management, while B focuses on community and lead records instead of the required Account structures. Option D involves creating custom objects, which adds unnecessary complexity when record types can be utilized within a single object.
