Salesforce Certified Sharing and Visibility Architect — Question 51

Universal Containers has built a recruiting application on the Salesforce Platform. HR requested that all internal users should have edit access to the Referral custom object. One of the recruiters needed to share a referral record with another colleague for collaboration using manual sharing. The recruiter opened the referral record and could not find the Share button.
What could be the technical reason for this?

Answer options

• A. The Referral object OWD is Public Read Only.
• B. The Referral object OWD is Private.
• C. The Referral object OWD is Public Full Access.
• D. The Referral object OWD is Public Read/Write.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because when the OWD is set to Public Read/Write, all users have access to edit records and consequently, the Share button is not available for manual sharing. Options A, B, and C would allow for potential sharing, as they have different access levels, but do not align with the situation where the Share button would be absent.
