Universal Container's Salesforce Admin set the organization wide default for the contact object to public, read, and write.
How would the role hierarchy assist in extending access to records?

A. B. C. D.Correct Answer: B
Role hierarchy will be redundant since the organization wide default is public read and write.
Role hierarchy works to extend access to records to the manager, for example.
It cannot be used to provide more permission than the profile permission.
Option A is incorrect because role hierarchy will extend access to the records, not restrict them.
But in this scenario, the organization wide default is open, so the role hierarchy is redundant.
Option C is incorrect.
Because the organization wide default is open, the role hierarchy is redundant.
Option D is incorrect.
Because the organization wide default is open so the managers can access the records and at the same time role hierarchy extends access to records such as managers.

In Salesforce, the Role Hierarchy determines the level of access that users have to records based on their position in the hierarchy. When the organization-wide default for the contact object is set to public read and write, all users have access to the records.
However, the Role Hierarchy can be used to extend access to records beyond the organization-wide default. The Role Hierarchy can open more access to records by allowing higher-level roles to access the records owned by users with lower-level roles.
For example, if a manager has a role higher in the hierarchy than their subordinates, they will have access to the records owned by those subordinates. This access can be further extended by sharing rules, manual sharing, and other means.
Therefore, the correct answer to this question is C. Role hierarchy will open more access to the records. The Role Hierarchy will not restrict access to records when the organization-wide default for the contact object is set to public read and write. Rather, it will allow for more flexibility in granting access to records beyond the default settings. Option B is incorrect because the Role Hierarchy is still relevant even when the organization-wide default is set to public read and write. Option D is incorrect because the Role Hierarchy does not prevent managers from accessing records.
