Salesforce Exam CRT-403 Topic 8 Question 41 Discussion

Actual exam question for Salesforce's CRT-403 exam

Topic #: 8
[All CRT-403 Questions]

Northern Trail Outfitters wants to change a master-detail relationship on

Account to a lookup relationship with a custom object Park. The app builder tries to

reconfigure this but is unable to do so.

What could be causing this?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

When attempting to change a master-detail relationship to a lookup relationship, Salesforce imposes specific restrictions to maintain data integrity:

C . The Account record includes Parks roll-up summary fields. Master-detail relationships allow roll-up summary fields to aggregate data from child records onto the parent record. If any roll-up summary fields are present on the master object (Account in this case) that depend on the detail records (Parks), the relationship cannot be changed to lookup until these roll-up summary fields are removed.

To resolve this, follow these steps:

Identify and delete all roll-up summary fields on the Account object that reference the Park object.

Convert the master-detail relationship to a lookup relationship.

Recreate any necessary roll-ups using declarative tools like Process Builder or Flow if needed, as lookups do not support native roll-up summaries.

For more guidance, review Salesforce's documentation on Changing Field Types.

Wait, hold up. Is option B even a real thing? 'The Park object needs at least one Master-Detail field for reporting?' That's like saying you need a unicorn to ride a bicycle. Seriously, Salesforce?

Haha, this is a classic Salesforce problem. I bet it's option A - the Account is included in a flow process on the Park object, and that's causing the issue. Good one, Salesforce!

I'm unsure. Those formulas on Account mentioned in D could mess it up too.

Option D seems the most likely to me. If there are existing formulas on the Park records that reference the Account, that would definitely make it difficult to change the relationship.

Hmm, I'm not sure. Could it be option B? The Park object needs at least one Master-Detail field for reporting, so that might be preventing the change.

I think C. Roll-up summaries can't be on lookup relationships.

Why not? C makes sense because of roll-up summary fields.

I think it's option C. The Park records have existing roll-up summary fields on the Account, which is why the app builder can't reconfigure the relationship.
