A.

The statement "Workflow rules are triggered when a standard object in a master-detail relationship is re-parented, even if the object's evaluation criteria is set to When a record is created, or when a record is edited and did not previously meet the rule criteria" is true.

When a record in a standard object with a master-detail relationship is re-parented, it triggers the workflow rule associated with that object. This behavior occurs regardless of the evaluation criteria set in the workflow rule. So, if the evaluation criteria is set to "When a record is created" or "When a record is edited and did not previously meet the rule criteria," the workflow rule will still be triggered if the record is re-parented.

It is essential to note that the behavior of workflow rules with master-detail relationships may vary with the type of relationship. For instance, if a record with a lookup relationship is re-parented, it will not trigger the associated workflow rule.

In conclusion, the given statement is accurate, and workflow rules are triggered when a standard object in a master-detail relationship is re-parented, regardless of the evaluation criteria set in the workflow rule.
