Salesforce Platform-App-Builder - Salesforce Certified Platform App Builder (Plat-Admn-202)

Based on the exact options provided, the correct answer is A. Create a master-detail relationship field on Open Position to Application.

The requirement says one applicant must be able to apply for multiple open positions using a single application. In Salesforce, the relationship field is created on the detail/child object. Therefore, to allow one Application__c record to relate to multiple Open_Position__c records, the master-detail field would be created on Open_Position__c and point to Application__c . Salesforce Trailhead confirms that in a master-detail relationship, the relationship field is created on the detail object.

Salesforce also uses master-detail relationships and junction objects to model many-to-many relationships.

Important note: In a fully normalized recruiting data model, a separate junction object between Application and Open Position is usually cleaner. But from the provided answer choices, A is the only option that supports one Application being connected to multiple Open Positions.

===========

The correct answer is B. The deployed permission set will only contain changes related to the change set.

When permission sets are included in change sets, the deployment carries permission settings related to the components included in the change set. The existing permission set in production is not completely overwritten as a whole object, and field-level security changes can be included when the relevant fields are part of the deployment. Salesforce documents permission sets and profile settings as access settings that can be included with change sets.

A is incorrect because the whole permission set is not simply wiped and replaced.

C is incorrect because field-level security can be deployed when included properly.

D is close in plain language, but the more accurate exam answer is that the deployed permission set contains only changes related to the change set.

===========

The correct answer is C. Internal profiles.

When a new custom field is created using Schema Builder, Salesforce sets field-level security by default as visible and editable for internal profiles. This does not mean every possible profile, such as external/community profiles, automatically gets access. Salesforce Help specifically notes this default behavior for fields created in Schema Builder.

===========

The correct solution is component visibility with advanced filters. Lightning App Builder allows components on Lightning pages to be shown or hidden dynamically based on filter criteria. Salesforce Admin guidance also explains that App Builder filters can customize which components display on record pages and can use field values from related records, running user, and permissions.

Because the component must display dynamically based on criteria about the related Contact, the app builder should use an advanced visibility filter using the Contact field criteria.

Why not others:

A. Related Record component displays related record data but does not solve dynamic visibility by itself.

B. Hiding behind a tab does not dynamically control visibility.

C. Custom permission controls visibility by user permission, not by related Contact field criteria.

Text Area (Rich), commonly called a Rich Text Area field, is the appropriate Salesforce field type when users need formatted content rather than plain text. Salesforce ' s rich text editor supports formatting such as bold and italics, numbered and bulleted lists, hyperlinks, alignment, indentation, and embedded images. This makes it suitable for white-paper-style material containing structured text, lists, links, and graphics. A standard Text Area provides only limited plain-text content. Text Area (Long) increases the amount of text that can be stored but does not provide the rich formatting and image capabilities required here. An encrypted text area is intended to protect sensitive information and is unrelated to formatted document presentation. Therefore, Rich Text Area is the correct declarative field type.

The correct answers are A. Create owner-based sharing rules that give Read access to the master objects and C. Set Sharing Settings to Read Only on both Master-Detail relationship fields.

A junction object is normally created with two master-detail relationships to represent a many-to-many relationship. Salesforce documentation states that sharing access to a junction object record is determined by the user’s access to both associated master records and the Sharing Setting option on the master-detail relationship fields.

Because the master objects, Seminars and Attendees, have private organization-wide defaults, selected users need record access to those master records. Owner-based sharing rules can grant the selected group Read access to the master object records. Salesforce also documents that organization-wide defaults define baseline record access, and sharing rules are used to extend access when defaults are private or restricted.

The Read Only sharing setting on the master-detail relationship allows users with at least read access to the master records to work with related detail records, assuming they also have the required object permissions on the junction object.

B is incorrect because lookup filters restrict selectable related records; they do not grant record access.

D is incorrect because junction object records in master-detail relationships inherit sharing from the master records. Sharing is not handled directly through an owner-based sharing rule on the junction object.

==========

The correct answers are A. Processes that update record owners do not transfer child records and C. Processes will fail on records owned by inactive users.

When Process Builder updates a record owner, Salesforce does not automatically transfer associated child records such as related Contacts or other child records. Salesforce documentation says processes that update owners do not automatically transfer associated items, so separate update actions are required for each related record type.

Also, Salesforce documentation states that processes can’t update records owned by inactive users. If records are still owned by inactive users, automation that tries to update them can fail.

B is not the correct consideration here.

D is not the best answer because the issue described is about ownership-based access to Accounts and Contacts, not simply whether a process version is active.

===========

When deploying from sandbox to production using Change Sets, the following are critical considerations:

A. Transactions will revert if the deployment errors – Salesforce applies deployments as a single transaction; any failure rolls back the deployment to maintain org integrity.

D. Change sets do not include all components and may require manual configuration – Certain components, such as record data or some metadata, may need manual setup or additional deployment steps.

Salesforce documentation emphasizes that change sets cannot deploy everything and must be carefully reviewed before validation. (Salesforce Help)

B. Users being logged out is not required; deployments can occur while users are logged in.

C. Salesforce Connect does not automatically link environments; it is unrelated to change sets.

===========

A validation rule is the correct solution because Reason Lost should be required only when the Opportunity reaches Closed Lost. Salesforce explicitly recommends validation rules for conditionally required fields. The rule can evaluate whether StageName equals " Closed Lost " and whether Reason_Lost__c is blank; when both conditions are true, Salesforce blocks the save and displays an error. A page-layout required field would make Reason Lost mandatory at all stages, which does not meet the conditional requirement. A general field-level required setting has the same limitation. Dynamic Forms can control visibility and some UI behavior, but a validation rule provides reliable save-time enforcement across supported record-entry paths. Salesforce ' s Opportunity validation examples use the same pattern for stage-dependent required fields. Salesforce

================

The lookup field is created on the custom object Box and points to Account. That makes Account the parent-side object and Box the related child object. Salesforce automatically creates a standard relationship report type in the format Parent Object with Child Object, so the report type is Accounts with Boxes. Salesforce Help confirms that standard report types can be generated automatically when reportable custom objects have lookup relationships.

Why others are incorrect:

A. Boxes with Accounts starts from the child object perspective.

C and D include “with or without,” which is normally configured through custom report type relationship options, not the automatically created standard relationship report type.
