Objects in a Master-Detail relationship

Note: The "Master-Detail relationship" option on a Lookup field has been deprecated. This section is provided for legacy objects that have a Lookup field for which that option has been selected. Learn more: Master-Detail relationships If a Detail object is added to a Package, the Master object is added (automatically) as a dependent object If a Master object is added to a Package and if that Master object includes any Rollup Summary Fields, then the Detail object is added (automatically) as a dependent object When a Tenant installs a Package, the Rollup Summary Fields limit defined in Manage Tenant Capabilities is honored If the limit is exceeded, the installation process will stop and cannot proceed In order to complete the installation, delete existing Rollup Summary Fields to reduce the total number to within the defined limit After packaging, do not add or remove any Master-Detail relationships; doing so may cause unexpected results and/or loss of data
