Discuss Salesforce AP-219 Exam Topic 2 Question 15

An administrator has created a new currency field on the Fulfillment Order object and wants to roll up thetotal to theOrder Summary object. When creating a rollup field on the Order Summary object, Fulfillment Order does not appear as an option. Why is this?

ARollup Fields cannot sum Currency Fields

BThe Rollup Summary field must be created on the Fulfillment Order object with the Order Summary object as the parent

CThe Order Summary field on the Fulfillment Order object is a Lookup

DThe Order Summary object has reached the limit of Rollup Summary fields

Suggested Answer: C

The reason why Fulfillment Order does not appear as an option when creating a rollup field on the Order Summary object is that the Order Summary field on the Fulfillment Order object is a Lookup. A Lookup field is a type of custom field that creates a relationship between two objects, but does not support rollup summary fields. To create a rollup summary field, the relationship between the objects must be master-detail, which means that the child record cannot exist without its parent record.

C makes sense too. Lookups can complicate rollups.

I feel like A is wrong. Currency fields can be summed.

I think it's B. The rollup needs to be on the parent object.

Wait, really? I thought you could roll up currency fields!

Could be a limit issue on Rollup Summary fields for Order Summary.

Isn't it because the Order Summary is a Lookup?

I think the Rollup Summary field needs to be on Fulfillment Order, not Order Summary.

Rollup Fields can sum Currency Fields, so that's not it.

I feel like the limit on rollup fields could be a factor, but I can't recall the exact numbers for those limits.

I’m a bit confused about the currency fields. I thought rollup fields could handle them, but maybe there’s a limitation I missed?

I think I saw a similar question where the parent-child relationship was crucial for rollup summaries. Could it be that the Order Summary isn't set up correctly?

I remember something about rollup fields needing a specific relationship type, but I'm not sure if it applies here.
