Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Mandatory
Options B, C, and D are correct dictionary attributes that affect field behavior. 'Mandatory' (B) forces the field to be required. 'Default value' (C) sets an initial value for the field. 'Calculated' (D) enables a scripted calculated value, directly affecting how the field's value is determined. Option A ('Display') is a dictionary attribute that primarily controls which field to display in a reference field, not directly affecting field behavior. Option E ('Reference qualifier') is also a dictionary attribute, but it filters the records shown in a reference field, affecting record selection rather than the field's own behavior.
