Ursa major Solar's administrator needs to create a custom field to track a specific Tier 2 support user on a case record. What is the appropriate data type to utilize when creating this custom field?

A Lookup relationship custom field allows a user to associate a record with another record from a different object, or even the same object. In this scenario, it would link the Case record to a specific User record, enabling the administrator to easily track the Tier 2 support user.

A Lookup filter is a feature that refines the results shown in a lookup field, not a data type for creating the field itself.

A Hierarchical relationship is a specific type of lookup relationship used for linking an object to itself, typically for organizational hierarchies (e.g., manager field on a User object), not for linking cases to users.

A Formula field calculates its value based on other fields or expressions and cannot be used to directly select and link to a specific user record.
