Common mistakes.

  • B. Creating only one Record Type would prevent the differentiation of business processes and picklist values specific to each distinct line of business, failing to meet the requirement for a complicated sales process across different widgets.
  • C. Creating six Record Types, one for each combination of LOB and user role, overcomplicates the data model; Record Types should define major business distinctions, which are the three LOBs in this scenario.
  • D. Six Record Types are excessive for the stated requirements, and having only three Page Layouts would not allow for the necessary distinct field visibility for both Sales and Marketing users across all three lines of business.
