Salesforce Exam ADX-201 Topic 3 Question 60 Discussion

Actual exam question for Salesforce's ADX-201 exam
Question #: 60
Topic #: 3
[All ADX-201 Questions]

DreamHouse Realty requires that house showings be scheduled within the current year to prevent too many future showings from stacking up.

How can they make sure Showing Date is only populated with a date this years?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

A validation rule is a feature that allows administrators to define criteria for data entry or import operations and display an error message when those criteria are not met. For example, a validation rule can ensure that house showings are scheduled within the current year by comparing the showing date field with a formula that returns the current year. If the showing date field contains a date outside of the current year, then the validation rule will prevent users from saving or importing records with an error message.

Exactly, and B is just reactive. It finds errors but doesn't prevent them.
