Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder — Question 79

Which statements are true regarding Roll-Up Summary Fields? (Choose three.)

Answer options

• A. Automatically derived fields, such as current date or current user, are allowed in a Roll-up Summary Field.
• B. Because Roll-up Summary Fields are not displayed on edit pages, you can use them in validation rules.
• C. Once created, you cannot change the detail object selected or delete any field referenced in your Roll-up Summary definition.
• D. Validation errors can display when saving either the detail or master record.
• E. Advanced currency management has no affect on Roll-up Summary Fields.

Correct answer: B, C, D

Explanation

Option B is correct because Roll-Up Summary Fields are indeed not shown on edit pages, allowing their use in validation rules. Option C is also true as once a Roll-Up Summary Field is established, changes to the detail object or referenced fields are not permitted. Option D is accurate since validation errors can arise during the saving of both detail and master records. Options A and E are incorrect as they misrepresent the functionality of Roll-Up Summary Fields.
