Salesforce CRT-403 Exam - Topic 5 Question 65 Discussion

Actual exam question for Salesforce's CRT-403 exam

Question #: 65
Topic #: 5

An app builder is creating a custom object called Testimonial__c and wants toconnect Testimonial__c records with both the submitter's

Contact record and Account record. If the Account is deleted, the Testimonial__c should also be deleted. If the Contact is deleted, but the

Account remains, the Testimonial__c should remain.

How should this be accomplished?

AMake both the Contact and Account fields required on the Testimonial__c object and create lookup relationships fromTestimonial__c to Contact and to Account.

BCreate a master-detail relationship from Testimonial__c to Accountand a lookup relationship from Testimonial__c to Contact.

CMake Testimonial__c a junction object between Account and Contact using master-detail relationships.

DCreate a lookup relationship from Testimonial__c to Account and a master-detail relationship from Testimonial__c to Contact.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

To connect Testimonial__c records with both the submitter's Contact record and Account record, an app builder should create a master-detail relationship from Testimonial__c to Account and a lookup relationship from Testimonial__c to Contact. A master-detail relationship creates a parent-child relationship between two objects and allows for roll-up summary fields, sharing settings, and cascading actions. A lookup relationship creates a loose association between two objects and allows users to relate records from one object to another.Source

I’m not sure about C, it sounds too complicated for this scenario.

Option B seems right, master-detail for Account is key!

Definitely B, that way the Testimonial__c will be deleted with the Account.

I’m a bit confused about the junction object idea in option C. I don’t think we need that for just connecting these two records, right?

I practiced a similar question where we had to decide between lookup and master-detail, and I feel like option B is the right choice here too.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think a lookup relationship for Contact would mean the Testimonial__c stays even if the Contact is deleted.

I remember that master-detail relationships allow for cascading deletes, so I think option B makes sense for the Account part.

I think I've got it! Option B is the way to go. Master-detail to Account for the delete behavior, and lookup to Contact to keep the Testimonial if just the Contact is deleted.

I'm a bit confused on the differences between lookup and master-detail here. I'll need to review those relationship types again before deciding.

Okay, let me walk through the options. I'm leaning towards B - a master-detail to Account and a lookup to Contact. That should give us the right delete behavior.

Hmm, I think the key is understanding the delete behavior we want. If the Account is deleted, the Testimonial should go too, but not if just the Contact is deleted.

Gotta love these tricky Salesforce questions. It's like they're trying to trip us up with all these relationship types. Where's the 'Throw the whole thing out and start over' option?

Option B seems like the way to go. That way, if the Account gets deleted, the Testimonial__c goes with it, but if the Contact gets deleted, the Testimonial__c sticks around.
