A. B.

B.

The statement "If the company locale is set to US English, all users will have a default locale of US English and this cannot be changed" is false.

In Salesforce, a user's default locale is based on the language and country/region settings of their user record. The company locale, on the other hand, sets the default currency, date format, and other regional settings for the organization.

When a user is created, their default locale is set based on their language and country/region settings. However, users can change their default locale by editing their user record. They can choose a different language and/or country/region to set their locale. The available locales are based on the company's enabled languages and supported countries/regions.

So, even if the company locale is set to US English, users can still choose a different locale as per their preference. They can navigate to their user profile, click on the "Edit" button, and select their preferred language and country/region from the available options.

Therefore, the correct answer to the given question is B. False.
