Salesforce Certified Sharing and Visibility Designer — Question 6

Universal Containers (UC) has a mostly private organization-wide default (OWD), as it is a core principle of UC to respect client data privacy. UC has implemented complex processes for granting access to Opportunity data. A few key members of the Sales Reporting team need to always be able to see, but not change, Opportunity data for all Opportunities.
What should an architect recommend as an approach to meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Create a Permission Set that grants “View All Data” Permission.
• B. Create a Permission Set that grants “View All” permission for Opportunity.
• C. Give “View All Data” Permission to the Sales Reporting Profile.
• D. Make Opportunity OWD read-only.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because creating a Permission Set that grants 'View All Data' allows the selected team members to view all Opportunity records without the ability to change them, which aligns with their requirements. Options B and C do not meet the need for visibility across all Opportunities without modification. Option D would restrict access too broadly, affecting the entire organization rather than just the Sales Reporting team.
