Question 1
A financial services firm is implementing Dynamics 365 Sales. The firm has a strict hierarchical structure. A Sales Manager needs access to all opportunity records owned by salespeople who report directly to them, as well as records owned by salespeople who report to their subordinates. The solution must not grant the manager broad organizational-level read access. The system administrator has configured Managerial Hierarchy security. However, managers report they can only see records of their direct reports, not the records of indirect reports. What is the most likely cause of this issue?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C
In hierarchy security settings, the 'Depth' value determines how many levels deep a manager can see in their hierarchy. A depth of 1 restricts the manager's view to only their direct reports. To see records of indirect reports, this value must be increased. Setting it to 0 would grant access to the entire reporting chain.
