A software company uses the following objects and relationships:

* Case: to handle customer support issues

* Defect__c: a custom object to represent known issues with the company's software

* Case Defect__c a junction object between Case and Defect __c to represent that a defect is a cause of a customer issue

Case and Defect__c have Private organization-wide defaults.

What should be done to share a specific Case_Defect__c record with a user?

AShare the parent Cast record Defect_c records.

BShare the parent Case and record_c record.

CShare the parent Defect__c record.

DShare the case_Defect_c record.

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

Since theCaseandDefect__cobjects have aPrivateorganization-wide default (OWD), their records must be explicitly shared for a user to gain access to the relatedCase_Defect__crecord. Sharing both parent records ensures that the user can access the junction object and the associated parent objects.

I think we might need to share the Case_Defect__c record directly since it's the junction object. But I'm not entirely sure.
