This is the introduction to part 2 of this 4 course series. When I recorded this, I thought I would be doing a total of 3 parts. So please note that there are indeed a total of 4 courses in this Admin Certification series with a focus on Lightning Experience and just ignore that part where I ment...

In this lesson, I run through how to create a custom object.

Standard objects grant access using hierarchies in Salesforce. You can also set custom objects to grant access utilizing the Role Hierarchy as well.

A Master-Detail relationship is a parent-child relationship in which the master object controls certain behaviors of the detail object:
When a record of the master object is deleted, its related detail records are also deleted.
The Owner field on the detail object is not available and is automati...

A Lookup relationship inks two objects together. Lookup relationships are similar to master-detail relationships, except they do not support sharing or roll-up summary fields.

Field Level Security (FLS) determines who can see and edit fields for an object. In this lesson we work through the process of setting FLS on various fields on an object. We also view Field Accessibility.

Page layouts are assigned by Record Type and Profile. We work through the steps of assigning page layouts in this lesson.

You can introduce Record Types for Custom Objects in Salesforce. Although this isn't a decision to be taken lightly, circumstances may dictate that there's no better option than implementing Record Types on your custom object - such as needing to provide different page layouts for different users...
