Discuss Salesforce Salesforce Certified Platform User Experience Designer (Plat-UX-101) Exam Topic 5 Question 87

Sales managers want their team members to help each other close Opportunities. The Opportunity and Account organization-wide defaults are private. To grant Opportunity access tosales reps on the same team, owner ship-based sharing rules were created for each team.

What is the side effect of this approach?

AAll sales reps will have Read access to Accounts for all Opportunities.

BSales Reps on the same team will have Edit access to the Accounts for Opportunities owned by then team members.

CSales reps on the same team will have Read access to the Accounts for Opportunities owned by their team members.

DAll sales reps will have Read access to all Accounts.

Suggested Answer: C

When the organization-wide default for Accounts is private, users can only access the accounts they own or are explicitly shared with them.However, when the organization-wide default for Opportunities is private, users can access the opportunities they own, are explicitly shared with them, or are associated with accounts they can access1. Therefore, when ownership-based sharing rules are created for each team to grant access to opportunities owned by their team members, the sales reps on the same team will also have Read access to the accounts for those opportunities.This is because the sharing rules for opportunities automatically grant access to the parent accounts2.However, the sales reps will not have Edit access to the accounts, unless the sharing rules specify Full Access for the opportunities3. The sales reps will also not have access to all accounts or all opportunities, only those that are owned by their team members or themselves.Reference:Sharing Records Owned by High-Volume Portal Users | Salesforce Security Guide,Sharing Rules | Salesforce Security Guide,Create Owner-Based Sharing Rules | Salesforce Security Guide

Really? I didn't expect that kind of access. Sounds risky!

Alesia 10 months ago

I thought it was B at first, but C fits better with the sharing rules.

Tuyet 10 months ago

I think it's C. They get Read access to Accounts for their team’s Opportunities.

Wait, are we sure about that? Seems like it could be A instead.

Clarence 11 months ago

Totally agree, C makes the most sense!

Novella 11 months ago

I think the answer is A because if they have access to Opportunities, it makes sense they would also see the related Accounts, right?

I’m a bit confused about the implications of these sharing rules. Does it mean all team members can edit Accounts, or just view them?

Giovanna 12 months ago

I remember a similar question where we discussed how ownership-based sharing affects access. I feel like the answer might be C, but I could be wrong.

I think the sharing rules might lead to broader access than intended, but I'm not sure if it's all Accounts or just the ones related to Opportunities.

I'm a little confused by all the details about the Opportunity and Account organization-wide defaults and the ownership-based sharing rules. I'll need to re-read the question a few times to make sure I understand what's going on before I select an answer.

This seems like a pretty straightforward question about access controls. I'm pretty confident I can figure out the right answer here by analyzing the information provided.

Nana 1 year ago

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is understanding that the Opportunity and Account defaults are set to private. So the sharing rules must be granting the sales reps some level of access to the Accounts. I'll evaluate each option carefully.

Nana 1 year ago

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I'm not totally sure about the implications of the ownership-based sharing rules. I'll need to think it through step-by-step to figure out the right answer.

Edward 1 year ago

This seems straightforward - the question is asking about the side effect of the sharing rules set up for the sales team. I'll carefully read through the options and think about what access the sales reps would have based on the information provided.

Antonio 1 year ago

I think the side effect is that sales reps on the same team will have Read access to the Accounts for Opportunities owned by their team members.

Lettie 1 year ago

Hah, B would be like the sales reps are running a mafia operation, editing each other's Accounts. Definitely C is the way to go here.

Gene 1 year ago

D sounds tempting, but that would be way too open. I'm going with C - it's the most logical option to enable team-based sharing without over-exposing sensitive account data.

Mary 1 year ago

I think the correct answer is C. Sharing rules based on ownership will give team members read access to each other's Opportunity Accounts, which makes sense for collaboration.
