The app builder at Ursa Major Solar has just created a master-detail relationship between a parent object Galaxy__c and child object
Star__c.
What would be the effect of creating this type of relationship if users want to report on Galaxy__c with Star__c?

B could work, but I prefer A for simplicity.

I agree with Emily. A is the easiest choice.

D is too complicated. Why create a new type?

C sounds right. Automatic creation is a plus.

I feel like B makes more sense. Custom types are better.

Definitely option C, no need for extra steps!

I think option A is misleading, it doesn't mention Galaxy__c specifically.

Wait, are you sure about that? I thought we needed to create a custom report type.

A Galaxy__c with Star__c report type will be automatically created.

Option B is the way to go. Reporting on master-detail relationships can be a real galaxy-brain move.

I’m a bit confused about the report types. I thought we might need to create a custom report type for the child object, but I can't recall the specifics.

This seems similar to a practice question we did about report types. I feel like option C might be the right answer since it mentions Galaxy__c with Star__c.

I think I remember that when you create a master-detail relationship, it automatically allows for reporting on both objects, but I'm not sure which option that relates to.

I'm not entirely sure about this one. I'll need to review the concepts around master-detail relationships and custom report types to make sure I understand the implications. But I think option D sounds right.

I'm pretty confident that the correct answer is D. A new custom report type will need to be created for Galaxy__c with Star__c, since the master-detail relationship is between those two objects.

Option B is the correct answer. A new custom report type will need to be created for Star__c with lookup fields from Galaxy__c.

Okay, let me think this through. Since it's a master-detail relationship, the report type would need to be for the parent object, which is Galaxy__c. So I'm going to go with option D.

I think it's option A. Seems straightforward.

I remember something about how master-detail relationships simplify reporting, but I can't remember if that means we need to create a new report type or if it happens automatically.

Hmm, I'm a little confused. Is it option B or D? I'm not sure if the report type would be for Star__c or Galaxy__c.

I think I know the answer to this one. If there's a master-detail relationship, then a new custom report type would need to be created for Galaxy__c with Star__c.

Still, creating a custom report type seems necessary for Galaxy__c.

But what about option C? That sounds plausible too.
