Free and Premium Salesforce Sharing-and-Visibility-Architect Dumps Questions Answers

Setting the organization-wide default on Shipment to Private, creating a trigger to update the Account record with the shipment information, and using a lookup relationship to Account are the best recommendations to accomplish this requirement. This way, the Marketing team can see the shipment information on the Account record, but not the Shipment records themselves. Option A is incorrect, since setting the organization-wide default on Shipment to Public would give access to all Shipment records to all users. Option B is incorrect, since using a master-detail relationship to Account would inherit the sharing settings from Account, which may not be Private. Option C is incorrect, since using a master-detail relationship to Account and setting the organization-wide default on Shipment to Controlled by Parent would have the same effect as option B.

 Ownership-based sharing rules are a way to grant access to records based on the record owner’s role or public group membership. Ownership-based sharing rules can be used to share records with Partner Community users, who are not supported by sharing sets. In this case, ownership-based sharing rules can be used to share Case and Container records owned by partner managers and partner users with other partner managers at the same distributor. Therefore, the answer D is correct and the other options are incorrect .

To give users in the partner user role access to all Case and Container records owned by any user at the same distributor, an Architect can give super user permission to the individual partner users. Super user permission allows partner users to access data owned by other partner users belonging to the same account or below them in the role hierarchy. Creating an ownership-based sharing rule will not work, as it will share records based on the owner’s role or territory, not their account. Creating sharing sets will not work, as they are only available for Customer Community licenses, not Partner Community licenses. Creating a Permission Set granting “View All” permission to Case and Container records will not work, as it will give access to all records in those objects, regardless of their owner or account.

The internal Pre-Sales users will no longer have access to the opportunity after the ownership transfer, since manual sharing is removed when a record owner changes. Option A is incorrect, since inherited sharing does not apply to manual sharing. Option B is incorrect, since implicit sharing does not apply to internal users. Option D is incorrect, since team access does not apply to manual sharing.

Assigning users profiles and unlocking users are two capabilities that the delegated administrator permission provides. Delegated administrators are users who can perform certain administrative tasks on behalf of administrators. These tasks include assigning users to specified profiles or permission sets, creating and editing users in specified roles or groups, unlocking users who have exceeded their login attempts limit, resetting passwords for users in specified roles or groups, logging in as users who have granted login access to administrators. Option C is incorrect, since setting OWD is not a capability that delegated administrators have. Option D is incorrect, since creating profiles is not a capability that delegated administrators have.

 Profiles can control the login hours for users, which can restrict their access to Salesforce based on their time zone. Option A is incorrect, since login hours are not set on user records. Option B and C are incorrect, since permission sets and custom permissions do not control login hours

 Account records can be accessed due to implicit sharing from Opportunity and Account records can be accessed due to role hierarchy are two reasons that could be causing this issue. Implicit sharing grants access to parent records when a user has access to a child record. For example, if a user has access to an opportunity, they also have access to its related account and contract records. Role hierarchy grants access to records owned by or shared with users who are below in the hierarchy. For example, if a user is above another user in the role hierarchy, they can access any records that the lower user can access. Option A is incorrect, since contact records cannot be accessed due to implicit sharing from account, as implicit sharing does not grant access to child records. Option C is incorrect, since contact records cannot be accessed due to implicit sharing from opportunity, as implicit sharing does not grant access to child records.

SOQL injection is a vulnerability that can exist when controllers use dynamic rather than static queries and bind variables. SOQL injection is a technique that exploits a security vulnerability by inserting malicious SOQL statements into an existing query. This can result in data loss, data exposure, or unauthorized access1. Buffer overflow attacks, cross-site scripting, and record access override are not vulnerabilities related to dynamic queries and bind variables.

Granular locking is an advanced tool that Salesforce can enable for large-scale role hierarchy realignments. Granular locking allows finer-grained locking for certain operations that affect large data sets, such as bulk loading or updating. Granular locking can reduce the locking time and avoid performance issues when changing role hierarchy or ownership. Therefore, the answer C is correct and the other options are incorrect

Profiles and Permission Sets can be used to control the object-level and field-level access for different types of users. For example, sales reps can have read/write access to Account object but not to the segment field, while service reps can have read-only access to Account object and all fields. Role Hierarchy can be used to control the record-level access for users based on their position in the organization. For example, sales managers can access and modify any account of reps reporting to them, while service managers can access and modify any account regardless of ownership. Field-Level Security can be used to override the profiles and permission sets for specific fields on specific records. For example, service managers can edit the segment field on any account, even if their profile does not allow it. Therefore, the answer D is correct and the other options are incorrect3

The likely cause of this issue is that sales users profile does not have access to the remaining fields. Profile permissions determine what users can do with records, such as create, read, edit, or delete. If sales users profile does not have read permission for certain fields on the Invoice object, they will not be able to see those fields on the record detail page3. Page layout assigned to sales user profile, org-wide sharing settings, and role-based sharing are not likely causes of this issue.

 A sharing set is the best way to share cases with customer community users based on a common account. Sharing sets are available for Customer Community licenses and can grant access to related records using predefined criteria1. Option A is incorrect, since writing an Apex class to create manual shares for these users would be complex and unnecessary. Option B is incorrect, since criteria-based sharing rules are not available for customer community users. Option D is incorrect, since upgrading the licenses to Customer Community Plus would be costly and not required in this scenario

Removing order delete permission from profiles and permission sets is the best approach to ensure that order records cannot be removed from the system in the future. This way, only users with the Modify All Data permission can delete order records. Option A is incorrect, since removing the delete button from the order page layout would not prevent users from deleting order records using other methods, such as data loader or API. Option B is incorrect, since changing the record type/page layout assignment for orders to be read-only would not affect the delete permission, but only the edit permission. Option D is incorrect, since implementing a sharing rule that changes access for the records to read would not prevent users from deleting order records that they own.

 Leveraging default Account team is the best way to help improve sales reps productivity by granting access to supporting internal users for customer records when they need help. Default Account teams are predefined groups of users who work together on an account. When a user creates or owns an account, Salesforce automatically adds the default Account team to the account team related list on the account2. Creating a permission set with “view all data” and assigning it to supporting users would give them too much access to data that they may not need. Creating a public group and replacing the account ownership with it would not be feasible or scalable. Creating a criteria-based sharing rule to grant access to other users would require manual maintenance and may not reflect the changes in the account team.

Using opportunity team and creating an assistant field, using Apex to share opportunities with the assistant agent is the optimum solution to meet the requirements. Opportunity teams are groups of users who work together on sales opportunities. By creating an assistant field on the opportunity object, the sales reps can specify an assistant agent who can help them with their deals. By using Apex, the system can automatically share the opportunity with the assistant agent based on the value of the assistant field, and remove access from the previous assistant if the field value changes. Option A is incorrect, since using share group to share opportunities with the assistant agent would require manual configuration and maintenance. Option C is incorrect, since using sharing rule to share opportunities with the assistant agent would not allow dynamic sharing based on the assistant field value. Option D is incorrect, since using Apex sharing to share and unshare opportunities with the assistant agent would be similar to option B, but without using opportunity teams.

Role hierarchy is a way to grant access to records based on the user’s position in the organization. Users higher in the role hierarchy can access and edit records owned by users lower in the role hierarchy, unless the Grant Access Using Hierarchies option is disabled for a specific object. In this case, the Operations manager can access and edit all scheduled courses owned by the Operations Users team members who report to them in the role hierarchy. Therefore, the answer B is correct and the other options are incorrect

The architect can configure the system to support the requirements by using a sharing rule. A sharing rule is a declarative way of extending record access to users or groups of users based on criteria such as ownership, role, or field values3. In this case, the architect can create a sharing rule that grants read or read/write access to all records owned by customer community users to UC users in the customer support role. A sharing set is used to grant access to community users based on a common account or contact, not to internal users. A share group is used to share records with groups of community users who have Customer Community Plus or Partner Community licenses, not with internal users. Apex sharing is used to programmatically share records when declarative sharing cannot fulfill complex requirements, but it is not necessary in this case.

The architect can design the solution to federate user setup to the partners by assigning delegated external administrators at each partner and allowing external users to self-register. A delegated external administrator is a user who can create and manage users in their own partner account. This way, the partners can have more control over their seasonal workers and reduce the administrative burden on UC. Allowing external users to self-register is another way of simplifying user creation and management for partners, as they can enable their workers to create their own accounts and log in to the community. Granting the Modify Users permission to the partner managers is not a good practice, as it would give them too much power over all users in the org. Creating a permission set giving Read/Write to the User object to partner manager is also not advisable, as it would expose sensitive user data and allow unauthorized changes.

The field has been configured for encryption, which might cause it to not show up on the list of available fields for creating a criteria-based sharing rule. Encrypted fields are not available for sharing rules, as they may contain sensitive data that should not be exposed. Option B is incorrect, since the architect does not need permission to Compliance fields to create a sharing rule. Option C is incorrect, since the architect’s profile does not need field-level security for this field to create a sharing rule. Option D is incorrect, since fields with validation rules are available for sharing rules.

A sharing set is the best way to share cases with community users based on a common account. Sharing sets are available for Customer Community licenses and can grant access to related records using predefined criteria. Option A is incorrect, since sharing rules are not available for community users. Option B is incorrect, since there is no such thing as a share group in Salesforce. Option D is incorrect, since Apex sharing is complex and requires code maintenance

 Deferred Sharing Recalculation allows the admin to postpone the recalculation of sharing rules until a later time, which can improve performance and avoid locking issues when changing role hierarchy or ownership. Parallel Sharing Rule Recalculation allows the admin to run multiple sharing rule recalculations at the same time, which can also improve performance and reduce downtime. Granular Locking enables finer-grained locking for certain operations that affect large data sets, such as bulk loading or updating. These features can help avoid problems when reorganizing roles and reassigning account owners. Therefore, the answer B, C, and E are correct and the other options are incorrect

To make the sensitive fields accessible to the Human Resource team, other than field level security, another option is to create a new custom object with private OWD and Lookup relationship to Employee to store new restricted information. This will allow creating a separate security model for the new custom object, which can be shared with the Human Resource team using sharing rules or permission sets. Creating a new custom object controlled by parent and a Master-Detail relationship to Employee will not work, as it will inherit the same OWD as Employee, which is Public Read Only. Changing OWD of Employee custom object to private and a Lookup self-relationship to store only new restricted information will not work, as it will make all employee records inaccessible to other users who need them.

The sales rep will have read-only access to the related account record. This is because the organization-wide default for the account object is private, which means that users can only access the accounts that they own or are shared with them. However, when a user has access to an opportunity, they also have implicit read-only access to the account associated with that opportunity1. This is called implicit sharing and it allows users to view the parent records of the child records they own or can access2. Therefore, the sales rep can view the account record related to the opportunity, but cannot create, edit, or delete it.

The error occurred because the trigger handler class is using ‘‘with sharing’’ and the user does not have access to the orders related to the opportunity. The ‘‘with sharing’’ keyword enforces the sharing rules that apply to the current user. This means that if the user does not have access to a record, they will get a permission error when trying to create or update it1. The trigger should use ‘‘without sharing’’ keyword instead, which ignores the sharing rules that apply to the current user. The trigger should not use RunAs(), IsCreateable(), or no sharing keywords as they will not prevent the error from occurring.

A sharing rule is missing to share Accounts to the AR team, which could be the issue preventing AR team members from seeing invoices. Since invoice is a custom object with a master-detail relationship to account, its sharing settings are controlled by its parent account. If AR users do not have access to account records, they will not be able to see or query invoice records either. Option A is incorrect, since a sharing rule to share invoices to the AR team would not work, as invoice inherits its sharing settings from account. Option B is incorrect, since assigning an invoice page layout to the AR team profile would not affect their visibility of invoice records. Option D is incorrect, since giving read permission to the invoice object to the Accounts receivable profile would not grant access to invoice records that are owned by other users.

The side effect of this approach is that sales reps on the same team will have read access to the accounts for opportunities owned by their team members. This is because owner-based sharing rules grant access to both the parent and child records of the same object. For example, if a sharing rule grants access to opportunities owned by a certain role, it also grants access to the accounts associated with those opportunities. All sales reps will not have read access to accounts for all opportunities, as the sharing rules are based on ownership. Sales reps on the same team will not have edit access to the accounts for opportunities owned by their team members, as owner-based sharing rules only grant read or read/write access to child records, not parent records. All sales reps will not have read access to all accounts, as the account organization-wide default is private.

 Setting the case organization-wide default to Private and adding the specialized marketing consultants to the account team with Read/Edit permission are the best recommendations to allow this scenario. This way, only the support rep who owns the case and the marketing consultants who are related to the account can see and edit the case records of VIP customers. Option B is incorrect, since setting the case organization-wide default to Public Read Only would give access to all cases to all users. Option C is incorrect, since using a role hierarchy and a read-only ownership-based sharing rule would not give edit access to the marketing consultants. Option D is incorrect, since adding the marketing consultants to the case team would require manual configuration and maintenance.

The Apex method that must be used to make sure only allowed fields are shown to the users is isAccessible(). This method returns true if the user has read access to the field, and false otherwise2. isReadable(), isShowable(), and isViewable() are not valid Apex methods for checking field-level security.

Reviewing the user provisioning process to not automatically create a user role for any new user and contacting Salesforce support and requesting to increase the number of users’ roles allowed are two recommendations that could solve this problem. Salesforce has a limit on the number of roles that can be created in an organization, which depends on the edition and the number of licenses. If this limit is reached, no more roles can be created unless the limit is increased by Salesforce support. Therefore, it is not advisable to create a new role for every new user, as this would quickly exhaust the limit and cause the “User Role Limit Exceeded” error. Option B is incorrect, since removing role hierarchy from Salesforce org and controlling the record access using Apex managed sharing would be a complex and custom solution that would not address the root cause of the problem. Option D is incorrect, since creating an Apex class to replace the User Roles by generic one as soon as they are created would be unnecessary and inefficient.

A sharing set is the best way to share cases with partner users based on a common account. Sharing sets are available for Partner Community licenses and can grant access to related records using predefined criteria1. Option A is incorrect, since changing the external OWD to public read only would give access to all cases to all partner users, not just the ones related to their account. Option B is incorrect, since sharing rules are not available for partner users. Option C is incorrect, since the role hierarchy does not apply to partner users

The license type that must be used by community users who want to collaborate on opportunities is Partner Community. As mentioned above, Partner Community licenses allow users to access standard CRM objects such as opportunities and collaborate with other partners and internal users using Chatter and Communities. Sales Community licenses do not exist as a separate license type. Customer Community and Customer Community Plus licenses do not allow users to access opportunities, as they are intended for customer service scenarios rather than sales scenarios.

 Creating a criteria-based sharing rule to give access to the public group for high-value opportunities and creating a public group and assigning the auditors to the group are the best options to give access to high-value opportunities to a team of auditors distributed through the organization. Option A is incorrect, since putting the auditors as the highest level of the role hierarchy would give them access to all opportunities, not just high-value ones. Option B is incorrect, since adding the auditors to the default opportunity team would require manual configuration and maintenance

The two actions that are required to achieve the requirement are setting up External Object to use OAuth to connect to the Accounting system and restricting access to data in the accounting system. OAuth is an authentication protocol that allows Salesforce to securely access data from an external system without storing the username and password of the external system user3. Restricting access to data in the accounting system is a way to ensure that only authorized users can view the invoice records from the external source. Creating an owner based sharing rule to grant visibility to the Invoice object and granting access to the External Object to only the Account Manager profile are not actions that can ensure that a user only accesses invoice records the user is authorized to see.

 To give access to the invoice records from an external object on the account page, the Sales Architect should recommend including the Invoice Related List on Account Page layout. This will allow the finance users to see the invoice records related to each account, as long as they have access to the account record and the external object4. Creating sharing rules or using Apex managed sharing are not applicable for external objects, as they do not support manual or programmatic sharing

 A criteria-based sharing rule is the best option to give access to accounts based on a specific field value, such as the record type. Option A would give access to all accounts, not just person accounts. Option B would only control the layout and not the visibility. Option C would not apply to person accounts, since they do not have account contact roles

The most likely cause of this problem is that the sales rep was manually removed from the Opportunity team. This would revoke the access to the opportunity record that the sales rep was helping with. The other options are not valid causes, because:

The Account team does not affect the Opportunity team members, unless the account owner changes and the opportunity owner is set to match2.

The Opportunity team is specific to each opportunity record, so removing the sales rep from one opportunity team does not affect the access to another opportunity record of the same account3.

The opportunity owner cannot enable/disable if the “Default Opportunity team” is able to access the record. The default opportunity team is a template that can be applied when creating or editing an opportunity, but it does not override the existing opportunity team members.

 Two reasons why an object is excluded from the list of available objects in a sharing set are that the object’s organization-wide sharing setting is set to public read/write, or that the custom object does not have a lookup to accounts or contacts. A sharing set is used to grant access to records based on a user’s account or contact, and it only works for objects that have private or public read only sharing settings. Custom objects are available for a sharing set if they have a lookup to accounts or contacts

The roles that Universal Containers has set for Partners users who will see records owned by partner users in roles below them in the hierarchy are Executive, Manager, and User2. These are the default roles that are created when you enable Partner Super User Access in Salesforce2. Partner Super User Access allows partner users to access records belonging to users in their account at their same role or lower in the role hierarchy, for Cases, Leads, Opportunities and Custom Objects.

The system permission in their profile that enabled the users to see all list views is manage public list views. This permission allows users to create, edit, and delete public list views, as well as view all list views shared with them or with their groups. To restrict visibility to the respective list views, the system administrator should remove this permission from the users’ profiles and assign it only to those who need to manage public list views

A sales rep who is added to an opportunity team with Read/Write permissions can perform actions such as updating opportunity fields, adding products, creating tasks, and logging calls4. Therefore, updating opportunity stage is an action that she is allowed to perform in the opportunity. Adding or removing members in the opportunity team is an action that only the opportunity owner or users above the owner in the role hierarchy can perform. Replacing opportunity owner is an action that only the current owner or users above the owner in the role hierarchy can perform.

Sharing the folders with the Sales Managers profile is the best way to grant access to sales managers to automate access to these Public Reports and Dashboard folder, as it allows admins to share folders with users who have a specific profile4. Sharing the folders with a “Sales Managers” Public Group will work, but it will require manual maintenance and may not reflect changes in roles or positions. Sharing the folders with the lowest rates in the Role Hierarchy will not work, as folders cannot be shared with roles or subordinates.

 Implementing an account hierarchy and redistributing the contacts evenly under the child accounts is a possible solution to avoid locking errors. This way, the contacts are not associated with a single parent account, and the integration can insert or update them without conflicting with other transactions. The other options do not address the root cause of the locking errors, which is the high number of child records under one parent record.

To increase performance of record access and sharing calculations, the architect should review the following areas: number of roles in the role hierarchy, number of sharing rules per object, and number of groups and group members. These areas can have a significant impact on how quickly and efficiently Salesforce can calculate and apply the sharing settings for each record. Custom object data, number of fields per object, and number of profiles in the org are not directly related to record access and sharing calculations.

 The access levels that can be set on the Account Team Member are Account Access, Opportunity Access, and Case Access2. Contact Access and Contract Access are not available options for Account Team Members.

To meet the distributor needs, a Salesforce Architect should recommend using Partner Community licenses. Partner Community licenses are designed for external users who need access to standard CRM objects, such as accounts, contacts, opportunities, and cases3. Partner Community users can also collaborate with internal users and other partners through Chatter and Communities4. Sales Cloud licenses are for internal users who need full access to standard CRM and custom objects. Customer Community Plus licenses are for external users who need access to custom objects and a subset of standard CRM objects, such as accounts and contacts. Custom Community licenses are for external users who need access to custom objects only

Private Account Sharing with Sharing Rules from Commercial Sales Group(s) to Commercial Support Group(s) and Consumer Sales Group(s) to Consumer Support Group(s) is the recommended Org-Wide Sharing Default for Accounts and the way to enable proper Commercial and Consumer Sales to Support Account Sharing for this scenario. This way, the sales and support departments can share their customers with each other, but not with the other departments. The other options are incorrect because they either do not allow the sales and support departments to share their customers (A and B) or they allow too much access to the accounts ©.

The user will not be able to see the junction object records or the field values if their profile allows access to the Job object but not to the Production Facility object. This is because junction objects inherit the sharing and security settings from both master objects, and users need access to both master objects to access the junction object records. If a user does not have access to one of the master objects, they will not see any records or fields from the junction object

The two methods that would be used to enforce this requirement are A and D. Schema.DescribeFieldResult and Schema.DescribeSObjectResult can be used to check the user permissions for creating records and accessing certain fields, even if the Visualforce controller is written with “Without Sharing”. The other options are either not related to field or object permissions, or not sufficient to enforce them.

Programmatic sharing is a way to use Apex code to create or delete sharing rules for records. Programmatic sharing is useful when2:

An external system manages user record access and you need to synchronize the access settings in Salesforce.

The native sharing functionality does not meet your complex or dynamic sharing requirements.

 Enterprise Territory Management is a feature that allows you to assign accounts to territories based on criteria such as geography, industry, revenue, etc. With Enterprise Territory Management, you can1:

Use the Metadata API to create, update, and delete territory models, territories, and account assignments.

Integrate with Collaborative Forecasting to forecast sales revenue by territory.

Assign opportunities to territories based on the account assignment or other criteria.

 To grant the sales managers access to the customer invoices data, the architect should control the invoices object permission on the sales manager’s profile. This will allow the sales managers to view and query the external object records, as long as they have access to the parent account records. Creating a sharing set or a sharing rule will not work, as they are not supported for external objects. Using manual sharing will not work, as it is not available for external objects

The term that describes the situation when you make changes to roles and groups Salesforce locks the entire group membership table is Granular Locking. Granular Locking is a feature that improves the concurrency and performance of sharing operations by locking only the affected nodes in the role or territory hierarchy, instead of locking the entire hierarchy. This allows multiple sharing operations to run in parallel without causing lock contention or blocking each other.

To ensure the data security of the custom web service, the Architect should consider the following design elements:

Query the Orders object with Dynamic SOQL based on the fulfillment ID: This will allow the web service to filter the orders based on the input parameter and return only the relevant records to the business partner.

Set the Orders object’s sharing settings to Private in the Org-Wide Defaults: This will restrict access to the Orders object to only the owner and users above them in the role hierarchy by default, and prevent unauthorized access from other internal or external users.

Develop a custom Apex web service using the “With Sharing” keyword: This will enforce the sharing rules defined for the Orders object and respect the record-level access of the web service user.

To share a report or dashboard folder with other users in the organization, you can use Public Groups or Roles4. Profiles and Teams are not available options for sharing folders.

When a user transfers ownership of a record to another user, the original owner loses access to the record unless they have access through other means, such as role hierarchy, sharing rules, teams, etc. In this case, since both Sales Rep A and B have the same role in the role hierarchy, and the sharing model for the Opportunity object is private, Sales Rep A will have no access to the Opportunity after the transfer

 To help the system recover from a maintenance restart on Salesforce servers, the Salesforce feature that would help is enabling deferred sharing rule recalculation. This feature allows postponing the recalculation of sharing rules until a scheduled time, which can improve performance and avoid locking issues when there are frequent changes to sharing rules or role hierarchy5. Enabling granular locking or parallel sharing rule recalculation will not help, as they are related to improving performance and avoiding locking issues when recalculating sharing rules, not recovering from a maintenance restart. Enabling filter-based opportunity territory assignment will not help, as it is related to assigning opportunities to territories based on criteria, not recovering from a maintenance restart.

Storing the value in a text field on a protected custom setting in the package is the best way to support this requirement. Protected custom settings are not visible to subscribers, but they can be accessed by the package code and support representatives. The other options either expose the value to subscribers (B and C) or do not allow support representatives to access it (D).

Setting the Field Level Security for the Date of Birth field to be Visible to Customer Support Rep Profile, and set the Date of Birth Field Visible and Read-only to Banking Rep profile is the best approach to meet this requirement, as it allows admins to control who can see and edit a specific field on an object. Creating a Validation rule in the Data of Birth field so the rule returns true only when user.profilename matches Customer Support Rep will work, but it will require additional logic and error handling. Adding Date of Birth field to the Search layout of the Contact Object and modifying the Page layout assigned to Customer Support Rep and adding Date of Birth field as Required will not work, as it will only affect how the field is displayed and searched, not who can edit it.

The underlying issue for these users who don’t see any of the accounts that were shared with the public group is that they are in profiles that have no access to the Account object. If a user does not have Read permission on an object in their profile or permission set, they cannot access any records of that object, regardless of any sharing rules or manual sharing. The page layout assigned to these users does not affect their record visibility, only their field visibility and layout. The permission set that only allows accounts in Active status does not affect their record visibility, only their record filtering. The accounts being owned by users higher in the role hierarchy does not affect their record visibility, as sharing rules can grant access to records owned by any user in any role.

Three advanced tools that Salesforce can enable for large-scale role hierarchy realignments in organizations with large data volumes are partitioning by divisions, deferred sharing calculation, and skinny table indexing. Partitioning by divisions allows the organization to segment data into logical sections based on business criteria, which reduces the number of records that need to be recalculated when role hierarchy changes. Deferred sharing calculation allows the organization to postpone the sharing recalculation until a scheduled time, which avoids impacting users during peak hours. Skinny table indexing allows the organization to create custom indexes on frequently used fields, which improves query performance and reduces locking contention

The Field Accessibility Viewer is a tool that allows you to see how a field is visible or editable for a specific profile or permission set. You can also see which page layouts and record types include the field. This is a quick way to determine the field accessibility settings for different users without logging in as each user profile or clicking on each profile.

To reduce redundant leads and restrict their editing and reassignment, a Salesforce Architect should recommend implementing a private OWD on Lead. A private OWD means that only the owner of the lead record and users above them in the role hierarchy can view, edit, or transfer the lead. This will prevent duplicate leads from being created by other users, and also ensure that only the lead owner can modify or reassign the lead. Implementing a public read only OWD on Lead will not work, as it will allow other users to view the lead records, which may lead to duplication. Implementing a public read only/transfer OWD on Lead will not work, as it will allow other users to transfer the lead records to themselves or others. Implementing a public read/write OWD on Lead will not work, as it will allow other users to edit or reassign the lead records.

According to this source, submitting to Force.com Security Scanner, using web application security tools, and using debug logs to check hijacked requests are some of the ways to make sure Visualforce pages are secure. The other options are not sufficient or recommended.

 Enabling opportunity teams and allowing users to add the product manager is the best way to accomplish the requirement, as it allows for granular and flexible sharing of opportunities with specific users who are involved in the deal. Creating a sharing rule to allow the product manager to access the opportunity is not feasible, as it would require a criteria or an owner-based rule that would apply to all product managers and opportunities, not just specific ones. Enabling account team and allowing users to add the product manager is not sufficient, as it would only grant access to the account, not the opportunity. Using similar opportunities to share opportunities related to the product manager is not relevant, as it is a feature that helps users find and update similar opportunities based on fields and filters

The Internal Default sharing settings for a custom object can be either Public Read/Write or Public Read Only if the External Default sharing setting is set to Public Read Only1. Controlled by Parent and Private are not valid options because they would not allow external users to access the custom object records.

The architect does not need to do anything to ensure field-level security is enforced on a custom Visualforce page using the standard lead controller. This is because the standard controller automatically enforces field-level security based on the user’s profile and permission sets. The user will only see the fields that they have read access to, and will only be able to edit the fields that they have edit access to

The Architect can support this request by creating a Permission Set with read-only access to the Category field and assigning it to the 3 users who need it. This will override the profile permissions and restrict their access to the field.

By turning off the Customer User Visibility feature in its Customer Community, Universal Containers can expect that community functionality related to searching for other external users will be affected. The Customer User Visibility feature allows customer community users to find and collaborate with other customer community users who belong to different accounts. If this feature is turned off, customer community users can only see other users who belong to the same account as them. Turning off this feature will not affect creating new customer community users, updating their user profile, or searching for internal users.

The best practice for testing sharing and visibility changes is to use the login as feature for a sample user in each role and profile. This allows the tester to see exactly what the user can see and do in the org, and verify that the sharing settings are working as expected.
