Salesforce Spring 25 Release 77 Questions
Universal Containers (UC) wants to reduce the amount of redundant leads entered into the
system. UC also wants to ensure that leads are only edited/reassigned by the lead owner.
Which organization-wide default (OWD) approach should be recommended to help UC
implement these requirements?
A. Implement a Public Read Only/Transfer OWD on Lead.
B. Implement 2 Public Read-Only OWD on Lead.
C. Implement a Private OWD on Lead.
C. Implement a Private OWD on Lead.
Explanation:
To stop redundant leads and ensure only the owner can edit or reassign, you must begin with the most restrictive setting: Private OWD. Under Private, leads are invisible to all except the owner (and their superiors via Role Hierarchy, if enabled).
→ New leads can’t be edited by another user because they won’t even see them.
→ You can still grant “Read” or “Read/Write” via sharing rules for specific profiles if needed, but out of the box only the owner has edit rights.
Public Read-Only/Transfer (A) would allow everyone to view—and potentially transfer—every lead, which fails the requirement. “2 Public Read-Only” (B) isn’t valid syntax and also doesn’t restrict editing. Only Private OWD meets both blocking redundant entries (users can’t see leads they didn’t create) and owner-only edit rights.
