Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder — Question 431

Managers at Universal Containers want a quick way to create additional accounts to form a hierarchy from a parent account record. They want to auto-populate five fields based on the parent to make it easier for users to create the child accounts quickly.
What should the app builder recommend?

Answer options

• A. Custom Global Quick Action
• B. Create a custom action
• C. Add Path on Account hierarchy
• D. Add a custom Link on Account

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as creating a custom action allows for the specific configuration needed to auto-populate fields from the parent account when creating child accounts. Options A and D do not provide the necessary functionality for auto-populating fields, and option C does not directly facilitate the creation of new accounts.
