Custom Formula Fields Recalculation

D.

Custom formula fields are calculated at different times depending on the context in which they are being used. Here are the details of when custom formula fields are recalculated:

Option A: Nightly - Custom formula fields that are not referenced in a report, workflow rule, or process builder are recalculated once every 24 hours. This process typically occurs overnight.

Option B: Every twenty minutes - Custom formula fields that are referenced in a report are recalculated every 20 minutes. This ensures that the report data is up to date.

Option C: Once per user session - Custom formula fields that are referenced in a Visualforce page or a Lightning component are recalculated once per user session. This means that the formula field will only update when a new session is started.

Option D: Each time a user views the record - Custom formula fields that are not referenced in a report, workflow rule, or process builder, and are not part of a Visualforce page or a Lightning component, are recalculated each time a user views the record.

It's important to note that custom formula fields have a maximum of 3,000 characters and can reference up to 10 related objects. They can also reference other formula fields, but there is a limit of 5 levels of nested formulas. Formula fields are a powerful tool for customizing Salesforce, but it's important to understand how they work and when they are recalculated to ensure that your data is accurate and up to date.
