C.
A custom object
Answers
C.
A custom object
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

To access account order information from an external system, such as an ERP, without replicating the order information, a consultant should use an external object. An external object is a special type of custom object that maps to data stored outside Salesforce, such as in an OData service or a cross-org adapter. By using an external object, the consultant can:

Create a schema definition for the external data source and register its URL in the Remote Site Settings.

Define the fields and relationships for the external object and link it to the Account object via an indirect lookup relationship.

Use standard Salesforce features, such as reports, dashboards, list views, and global search, to access and display the external data in Salesforce.

Use Apex callouts, Lightning web components, or Visualforce pages to perform CRUD operations on the external data.
