Formula column on both

Business rules do not support complex string manipulation. Formula columns to not support regex Even though business insists on minimizing customizations, a plugin is required Therefore correct answer is Plug-in Formula Column (Calculated Column)

You would need some workarounds but you could use a Formula column (Which uses PowerFx expressions) to format a text phone number "to only display numbers and periods". So I think it should be Formula column on both (Although it would be more straightforward to create the logic for the phone number using a plug-in but the requirement says "The solution must not use custom development when possible")

The requirements are to use out of the box functionality so the plugin is out and thus the given answer is correct.

Requirements and Matching Solutions: Phone number formatting ✅ Solution: Plug-in Reason: Formatting logic like removing characters or restructuring strings requires more advanced processing than business rules or formula columns can provide. This is best handled using a plug-in (server-side logic). Percentage calculation ✅ Solution: Formula column Reason: Formula columns are designed specifically for calculations and can handle percentage-based logic without needing custom code. This satisfies the “no custom development” requirement.
