Question: 1 / 400

Is it possible to make a field required using Field Level Security?

Yes, it can be done

No, it cannot be done

Field Level Security (FLS) controls the visibility and editability of fields for different profiles, but it does not have the capability to make a field required. When you set a field as “Read-Only” or “Hidden” through FLS, it dictates whether the user can see or change the information, but it does not enforce that the field must be filled in before recording a record.

To make a field required, you need to use either Page Layouts or Validation Rules. Page Layouts allow you to mark fields as required at the layout level, meaning users must fill those fields before they can save a record. Validation Rules, on the other hand, can implement logic that checks for specific conditions and ensures that certain fields must have a value based on these conditions. Thus, FLS does not offer the functionality to enforce required fields, which is why the statement that it cannot be done is accurate.
