Question

A company delivers products to multiple communities. The company creates a canvas app connected to a Common Data Service database. The app tracks communities to see where the delivery volume is the highest. Drivers must enter delivery information on a form that uses an entity named Delivery. Depot staff must enter information on a pick-up form that uses an entity named Pick-up. Each form contains a community field that is based on a shared list across both forms. You need to create the community field. Which type of field should you create?

Explanation

A global option set (now called a 'Choice' in Dataverse/Common Data Service) is a reusable list of values that can be shared across multiple entities and forms. Since both the 'Delivery' entity and the 'Pick-up' entity need to use the same community list, a global option set is the correct choice - it is defined once and referenced by both entities. A local option set is scoped to a single entity and cannot be reused. Text and text area fields are free-form inputs with no enforced list of values, making them inappropriate for a controlled, shared dropdown list.
