How many "Master-Detail Relationship" type field can we create in a particular salesforce object ?

Hi,

Master-detail relationship is like parent-child relationship where, master represents a parent and detail represents a child in which master object controls some behaviors of the detail object. Like whenever a Master object record is deleted then the detail object related to it also gets deleted.

Master-detail relationship can be defined between custom objects or between a standard object and a custom object. The detail object automatically gets the security and sharing settings given to the master object.

There are some limitations in Master detail relationship-

1. Only up to two master detail relationships we can create for a particular salesforce object.
2. We can have only Upto three levels of custom detail levels.
3. We can’t create a Master-detail relationship when the custom object already contains data.
4. Each object is allowed to have one or two masters or up to 8 details.

Thanks.
