The correct answers are A. Streams and D. Out of Office.

Streams allow users to combine multiple Chatter feeds into one custom feed, making it easier to monitor updates from important people, records, and groups. This directly solves the issue of gathering feed updates from core team members. Salesforce documentation describes Chatter streams as custom feeds created by combining multiple related feeds into one feed.

Out of Office helps team members understand who is available to respond. Salesforce documentation explains that users can schedule and customize an out-of-office message and display it next to their name in Chatter.

Why the other options are incorrect:

Topics help categorize Chatter content but do not directly gather core-team feeds or show availability.

Polls are useful for collecting opinions, but they do not solve feed monitoring or availability visibility.

===========

The requirement specifies that a new vendor must accept terms on Agreements before an Opportunity can be closed. Salesforce Approval Processes are the declarative solution for enforcing such business rules. An approval process can:

Require users (vendors) to accept or approve records (Agreements).

Prevent Opportunities from moving to a closed stage until approval is completed.

Send email notifications automatically to approvers.

Salesforce documentation confirms that approval processes are used to enforce conditions on record lifecycle and ensure required steps are completed before record status changes. (Salesforce Help)

A. Email Alert cannot enforce record progression.

B. Dynamic Action only controls field-level UI visibility, not enforcement.

D. Validation Rule could prevent saving a record, but it cannot require explicit approval from a specific user group.

===========

The correct answer is B. Lookup.

This is a one-to-many mentorship relationship: one experienced Realtor can mentor many new Realtors, but each new Realtor works with only one experienced Realtor. A lookup relationship is appropriate for connecting one record to another in this type of flexible parent-child model. Salesforce relationship documentation confirms that lookup relationships are used to relate objects without the strict ownership, sharing, and deletion behavior of master-detail relationships.

Master-detail is too restrictive because the new Realtor record should not necessarily inherit ownership and deletion behavior from the mentor. Many-to-many is incorrect because each new Realtor has only one mentor. Indirect lookup is used for external objects, not this internal Salesforce relationship.

===========

Limitations when changing custom field data types include:

A. It is not possible to change the data type of a formula field – formula fields cannot be converted to other field types because they are calculated dynamically.

D. It is not possible to change a Text Area (Long) field to Text – Salesforce prevents reducing the field length because data loss could occur.

Salesforce documentation highlights these restrictions: (Salesforce Help)

B is partially true; changing fields referenced in Apex requires careful handling, but Apex references can sometimes be updated automatically.

C is allowed with some limitations if the External ID type is compatible.
