Question

A Salesforce admin at a logistics company needs to configure a dependent picklist relationship on the Shipment custom object. The 'Region' field should control which values appear in the 'Distribution Center' field. When the admin opens the Field Dependencies setup, they cannot select 'Region' as the controlling field. Which characteristic of the 'Region' field is the most likely cause?

Accepted Answer

The 'Region' field is a multi-select picklist, which cannot serve as a controlling field.

Answer

The 'Region' field is a standard picklist, and only custom picklists can control dependencies.

Answer

The 'Region' field is a checkbox, and checkboxes cannot be used as controlling fields.

Answer

The 'Region' field has fewer than 300 picklist values, so it is ineligible to control another field.
