Salesforce Developer (legacy) — Question 5

A field marked as 'Required' on an object (while creating the field itself on the object by checking the checkbox for ‘Required – Always require a value in this field in order to save a record’) can be overridden to make this field 'Read-Only' by checking the ‘Read-Only’ checkbox on the page layout.

Answer options

• A. True
• B. False

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is True because a 'Required' field can indeed be set to 'Read-Only' through the page layout, meaning users cannot modify it while still maintaining its requirement status. The answer False is incorrect, as it suggests that 'Read-Only' cannot be applied to a 'Required' field, which is not the case.
