Salesforce Certified Sharing and Visibility Architect — Question 46

Universal Containers (UC) has a partner community for its 200 distributors. UC customer accounts are assigned an individual distributor. The organization-wide default setting for the custom Delivery object is private.
How can an architect advise UC to grant all users at a distributor access to delivery records for all customers assigned to a particular distributor?

Answer options

• A. Create a criteria-based sharing rule that shares delivery records matching a distributor to the Distributor role in the role hierarchy.
• B. Create a criteria-based sharing rule that shares delivery records matching the Distributor to users of a Public Group created for the distributor.
• C. Give ownership of the delivery record to a distributor user.
• D. Create a Sharing Set for the Distributor Profile to grant access to the Delivery object.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because a Sharing Set allows users with specific profiles to access related records based on their account association, which fits UC's requirement. Option A is incorrect as sharing rules based on roles do not grant access to users without the appropriate role. Option B is not suitable since it involves a Public Group, which does not directly tie to the account relationship needed in this scenario. Option C does not meet the requirement of granting access to all users at a distributor.
