Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Add a quick view form for the Account entity
A quick view form displays related data from the lookup entity (Account) directly on the Project form without storing duplicate fields. Option A is incorrect because calculated fields only compute values from existing fields within the same entity, not from related entities. Option B is incorrect because creating a new main form for the Project entity does not automatically show related Account fields. Option C is incorrect because adding account fields directly to the Project entity would duplicate data and violate normalization.

These questions test the same concept from different angles. Work through them to make sure you can recognise it however the exam phrases it.
Variation 1. A model-driven app shows a custom form with fields from two related tables: Order and Customer. The form is set to display the Customer fields as a subgrid. Users want to see Customer details inline without navigating away. What should the app maker do?
medium- A.Add a new form section for Customer fields
- B.Create a custom page with a canvas control
- ✓ C.Use a quick view form for the Customer table
- D.Add a subgrid for the Customer table
Why C: Quick view forms allow displaying related entity fields inline. Subgrids show lists, not detail fields. Custom pages are for canvas experiences. Form sections don't add inline detail from other tables.
