Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder — Question 454

Universal Containers has two types of applicants, hourly and salary. There are separate record types for each. While all members of the human resource department need to be able to view all applicant records, only the hiring manager and VP of HR should be able to create salary applicant records.
What should the app builder recommend to meet this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Configure the hourly record type as the default and instruct non-management users to accept the default record type.
• B. Create a permission set containing the salary record type and assign it to the appropriate users.
• C. Remove ג€createג€ permission for the salary applicant object for everyone except the manager and VP.
• D. Update the org-wide default to private and create a sharing rule for the role of recruiting manager.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because creating a permission set specifically for the salary record type allows only designated users, like the hiring manager and VP of HR, to create those records while still enabling others to view them. Option A does not restrict creation permissions appropriately, C is too restrictive and does not allow for necessary visibility, and D complicates the access management without directly addressing the creation permissions needed.
