Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder — Question 65

What is true about a master detail relationship? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. To create multilevel master-detail relationships, you need the "Customize Application" user permission.
• B. Standard objects can't be on the detail side of a custom object in a master-detail relationship.
• C. You can create a master-detail relationship if the custom object already contains data.
• D. You can create a relationship as a lookup and then convert it to master-detail if the lookup field in all records contains a value.
• E. By default, records can be reparented master-detail relationships.

Correct answer: A, B, D

Explanation

Answer A is correct as the 'Customize Application' permission is necessary for creating multilevel master-detail relationships. Answer B is accurate because standard objects cannot occupy the detail side of a custom object in such relationships. Answer D is also correct since a lookup relationship can be converted to a master-detail as long as the lookup field is populated in all records. Answer C is incorrect because a master-detail relationship cannot be created if the custom object already contains data, and answer E is wrong because by default, reparenting is not allowed in master-detail relationships.
