Actual exam question for Salesforce's ADX-201 exam

Question #: 65
Topic #: 8

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?

ASync the users' Showing Calendar to Salesforce and filter it to only look at this year.

BCreate a report that shows any Showing Dates not scheduled in the current year to the updated.

CAdd Help Text so the user knows to only add a Showing Date within the current year.

DCreate a validation rule that ensures Showing Date contains a date within the current year.

Show Suggested 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.

I think option A could also work well. Syncing the users' calendar to Salesforce would make it easier for them to select a date within the current year.

I agree with Providencia. Option D seems like the most foolproof way to enforce the requirement.

D is the clear winner here. Gotta keep that real estate business running like a well-oiled machine, am I right?

I think option D is the best choice. It will ensure that the Showing Date is always within the current year.

Haha, imagine if one of the agents just sets the Showing Date to the year 3000 as a joke. That would really mess up the system!

C is a good idea too, but I agree that a validation rule is probably the most reliable solution. Can't have users accidentally booking showings for next year!
