Salesforce CPQ-Specialist Dumps

 Scenario:

A tiered pricing structure requires different amounts to be applied based on the quantity purchased.

 Solution:

Use a Discount Schedule with:

Type = Slab: Ensures different price amounts are applied for each tier.

Discount Unit = Amount: Specifies fixed dollar values for each tier.

 Why Other Options are Incorrect:

A, B: Block pricing is unsuitable because the requirement is tier-based, not fixed blocks.

C: Range type does not handle tiered pricing accurately.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Discount Schedules with Slab type are detailed in CPQ Discounting Guidelines ​.

 Considerations for Authorizing Calculation Service:

The Calculation Service must be authorized by a user who has sufficient privileges and stable permissions.

 Solution Steps:

Option B: Use a non-human admin user (e.g., an integration user) to authorize the Calculation Service. This ensures consistent access and avoids disruptions due to personnel changes.

Option C: Place the user at the top of the Role Hierarchy to ensure full visibility and access across relevant objects.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Proper user configuration for the Calculation Service is outlined in the CPQ Authorization Guidelines ​.

 Requirement Overview:

A nonrenewable subscription Product priced annually.

 Key Field Configurations:

Subscription Term = 12: Specifies an annual subscription.

Subscription Type = One-Time: Indicates that the Product is nonrenewable.

Subscription Pricing = Fixed Price: Defines a flat annual price.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Product record.

Update the fields as specified above.

Save and test by adding the Product to a Quote.

 Validation:

Confirm the subscription term and pricing are applied correctly and the product does not renew automatically.

In Salesforce CPQ, Product Selection Rules automatically add products to a Quote based on defined conditions. These rules typically evaluate and execute when the Quote is saved, as this triggers the full application of rules and updates to the Quote Lines. Option D aligns with this behavior—saving the Quote ensures the Conference Pass is added. Option A (Configuration Attribute selection) relates to configurator actions, not quote-level rules. Option B (Product selection) triggers option-specific rules, not quote-wide additions. Option C (Quote calculation) updates pricing, not product additions. Salesforce CPQ documentation confirms rule execution on save.

 Requirement:

Ensure that custom field data from original Quote Lines flows into Renewal Quote Lines.

 Solution:

Use twin fields on the Asset and Subscription objects to store and transfer data. Twin fields are automatically mapped during renewal processes, ensuring data flows seamlessly.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: A formula field cannot persist data on Renewal Quotes.

B: Automatic mapping does not apply to custom fields without twin fields.

C: A Price Rule is unnecessary when twin fields handle this data flow.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Twin fields and their functionality are described in CPQ Subscription Management ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Admin needs to generate one Asset record for each unit of the Product upon contracting.

 Solution Details:

The Asset Conversion field determines how Salesforce CPQ creates Asset records from Quote Lines.

Setting Asset Conversion to One per Unit ensures that for each quantity of the Product, a corresponding Asset is created.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Product record.

Locate the Asset Conversion picklist and select One per Unit.

Save and test the configuration by creating a Quote, contracting it, and verifying the Asset creation.

 Requirement Overview:

Sales reps want the Square Footage value on a Configuration Attribute to persist when renewing a Quote.

 Twin Field Mechanism:

Twin Fields ensure that data is retained and mapped between related objects.

Creating Twin Fields on the Asset and Subscription objects allows the Square Footage value to be carried forward during renewals.

 Steps to Configure:

Create a custom field for Square Footage on the Asset and Subscription objects.

Ensure the API names of these fields match the Configuration Attribute API name.

Test the renewal process to confirm the value persists.

 Validation:

The Square Footage value should automatically populate in the renewal Quote without manual entry by the sales rep​​.

 Scenario Overview:

A Product Rule triggers the addition of the Conference Pass Product when a related Product is selected.

 Key Trigger Mechanism:

Product Rules with an Action to add products execute as soon as the user selects a Product on the Quote.

 Steps to Verify:

Navigate to the Product Rule for the Conference Pass.

Ensure the Evaluation Event is set to fire On Initialization or Selection.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Product Rules are typically triggered based on user actions such as adding Products or configuring attributes​​.

 Requirement:

Track individual serial numbers for each unit of Product A sold.

 Solution Details:

Asset Conversion Field determines how assets are created from Quote Lines.

Setting Asset Conversion to One Per Unit creates one Asset record for each unit sold, allowing tracking of individual serial numbers.

 Implementation:

Navigate to the Product Record for Product A.

Set Asset Conversion to One Per Unit.

 Justification:

This setup aligns with Salesforce CPQ's approach for granular tracking of Assets associated with product sales​​.

 Scenario Overview:

Asset Conversion is set to One per Unit, so each unit sold creates a separate Asset record.

 Object Relationships:

During Order and Contract processes:

Order Product: Reflects the total quantity of Product A as a single record.

Asset: Creates two Asset records, one for each unit.

 Validation:

Confirm that the Asset records show separate entries for each unit sold, while other objects (e.g., Order Product) do not duplicate records.

 Requirement:

Sales reps need to identify Product Options linked to Quote Lines in the Quote Line Editor.

 Solution:

Enabling Visualize Product Hierarchy organizes Quote Lines based on their position within the bundle, displaying the parent-child relationship.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: The Product Option Drawer enables detail viewing but does not organize Quote Lines.

B: Preserve Bundle Structure applies to output documents, not the Line Editor.

D: Keep Bundle Together affects grouping but not hierarchy visualization.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Hierarchy settings are covered in the Quote Line Editor Configuration documentation ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Display Configuration Attribute X on the configuration page of a bundle and in a Line Item Column on the output document.

 Solution Details:

Product Option: Add the Configuration Attribute X custom field to ensure it appears during the configuration process.

Quote Line: Add the same custom field to enable its display as a Line Item Column in the Quote output.

 Steps to Configure:

Create a custom field named Configuration Attribute X on the Product Option and Quote Line objects.

Add the field to the relevant field sets and templates for visibility in both the configurator and the output document.

 Issue Context:

Users encounter a warning when searching Campaign records in the Quote Line Editor.

 Root Cause:

For Lookup fields to work correctly in Salesforce CPQ's Quote Line Editor, a Twin Field must exist on the target object (Campaign) with the same API name as the Quote Line lookup field.

 Solution Steps:

Create a custom field on the Campaign Object with the same API name as the lookup field on the Quote Line Object.

Ensure the field types match (e.g., both are Lookup fields or Text fields).

 Validation:

Test the functionality by searching for Campaign records in the Quote Line Editor. The warning message should no longer appear.

 Salesforce CPQ Documentation Reference:

This is a common configuration for CPQ Lookup fields in the Quote Line Editor​​.

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers wants to aggregate the quantities of all Product Options in Feature A to determine the Discount Tier.

 Key Configuration:

Assign the Discount Schedule to the Product Feature itself.

Enable the Cross Orders checkbox to aggregate quantities across multiple orders or contracts.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Product Feature record for Feature A.

Set the Discount Schedule field to the appropriate Discount Schedule.

On the Discount Schedule, check the Cross Orders box.

 Validation:

Add multiple Product Options from Feature A to a Quote and verify that their quantities are aggregated for discount calculation.

Block pricing in Salesforce CPQ is used when a fixed price applies to a quantity range, as in this tiered pricing scenario (e.g., $1,800 for 6-10 licenses). Option A sets the Pricing Method to "Block" on the Product, enabling this model. Option E involves creating Block Pricing records for each tier (e.g., 1-5 = $1,000), defining the fixed prices. Option B (Non Discountable = True) ensures no further discounts apply, meeting the requirement. Option C (Fixed Price) applies a single price regardless of quantity, not tiered pricing. Option D (Slab Discount Schedule) is for percentage-based discounts, not fixed block prices. Salesforce CPQ documentation validates this setup for block pricing.

 Issue:

The validation error message appears immediately after a user sets a specific value in the Configuration Attribute, even before saving.

 Solution:

Setting Apply Immediately to False ensures that changes in Configuration Attributes do not trigger immediate validations. Instead, validations occur only upon clicking Save.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Evaluation Action does not exist as a field for Product Rule Error Conditions.

C: Changing the Apply Immediately field for Product Options does not affect the Configuration Attribute's behavior.

D: Setting Evaluation Event to Save applies to the rule's scope but does not address Configuration Attribute settings.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Configuration Attribute Settings are explained in CPQ Configuration Attribute documentation ​.

 Issue:

Quote Lines on Quote A are grouped incorrectly in the output document.

 Possible Causes:

C: Quote Line Groups: Existing Quote Line Groups on the Quote override the Group Field setting in the template.

D: Group Field in Template Section: The Group Field value in the Line Items template section may cause unexpected grouping.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: The Modified By field has no impact on template grouping.

B: Configuration Attributes like location affect product selection, not grouping in Quote templates.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Grouping behavior is explained in the Quote Templates and Line Item Configuration documentation ​.

 Requirement Overview:

When Product A is selected, Product B should be automatically selected within the bundle.

The admin created a Product Rule, but it fails to trigger immediately.

 Key Mechanism:

The Apply Immediately checkbox ensures that the Product Rule executes as soon as the parent Product (Product A) is selected. Without this, the rule may not fire until additional actions (e.g., clicking Calculate) occur.

 Steps to Resolve:

Navigate to the Product Option record for Product A.

Set the Apply Immediately field to True.

Save and test the configuration by adding the bundle to a Quote.

 Justification:

"Apply Immediately" is required for Product Rules to trigger instant actions, ensuring dependencies like auto-selection are respected without delay​​.

 Requirement:

Ensure the price of Tiny Boxes ($0.005) is handled with proper decimal precision.

 Solution:

Adjust the Unit Price Scale to 3 in the Pricing and Calculation Package Settings, enabling Salesforce CPQ to handle prices up to three decimal places.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Field-level precision on Quote Line does not control pricing precision.

C: The Product record's Unit Price Scale cannot override global settings.

D: Price Rules are unnecessary for simple decimal precision adjustments.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Decimal precision configuration is described in CPQ Pricing Settings ​.

In Salesforce CPQ, importing data for products and bundles requires a specific order to ensure referential integrity, as certain objects depend on others being present. The correct sequence starts with the Product (the parent record), followed by Product Features (defining sections or categories within the bundle), Product Options (specific selectable items under features), Option Constraints (rules governing option selections), and finally Configuration Attributes (additional settings for dynamic configuration). Option A reflects this hierarchical dependency accurately. Option B includes unrelated objects like Product Action and Error Conditions, which pertain to rules rather than bundle structure. Option C starts with Product Option before Product, which violates dependency rules since options require a parent product. Option D begins with Product Features before Product, which is incorrect as features need a product to associate with. Salesforce CPQ documentation emphasizes this order for successful data imports.

Understanding the Requirement:

Universal Containers needs Product Option A to be automatically included with Product B during the configuration.

Sales reps should not be able to remove Product Option A.

Salesforce CPQ Mechanism:

The Required field on a Product Option ensures that it is mandatory within a bundle and cannot be deselected by the user during configuration.

Field Behavior:

When the Required checkbox is selected for a Product Option:

The option is always included in the bundle configuration.

Users cannot remove or modify it unless additional automation (like a product rule) overrides this setting.

Configuration Steps:

Navigate to the Product Option A record associated with Product B in Salesforce CPQ.

Select the Required checkbox and save the changes.

Ensure that no conflicting product or price rules exist that could affect this behavior.

Field Alternatives and Clarifications:

Bundled: Sets the option as a part of the bundle, but this primarily affects pricing (sets price to zero) and doesn't enforce inclusion.

Quantity Editable: Allows control over whether users can adjust the quantity but does not prevent removal.

Selected: Preselects the option during configuration but still allows users to deselect it.

Verification and Testing:

Create a test configuration with Product B as the parent and verify that Product A is always included in the bundle.

Attempt to remove Product A to confirm that it is not possible.

In Salesforce CPQ, the Option Layout field on the Product record determines how bundle options are presented in the configurator. To allow users to view all available and selected options by scrolling on a single page, the "Sections" layout is ideal. This layout organizes options into collapsible sections based on Product Features, keeping everything visible on onepage without requiring navigation steps like a wizard. Option A (Wizard) presents options step-by-step across multiple pages, which doesn’t meet the single-page requirement. Option B (assigning all options to one feature) limits organization and doesn’t address the layout requirement. Option C (Dynamic selection method) controls runtime behavior of options but doesn’t influence the single-page scrolling display. Salesforce CPQ documentation confirms that the "Sections" layout supports a scrollable, single-page view.

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers sells a Product exclusively as part of a bundle and does not want it to appear in the Product Selection screen.

 Solution:

The Component checkbox ensures the Product is only available as part of a bundle and is hidden from the general Product Selection screen.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Product Record for the item.

Select the Component checkbox.

Save the changes.

 Validation:

Confirm that the Product is not visible on the Product Selection screen but is available within its assigned bundles.

 Scenario Overview:

The Custom value for the Condition Met field allows for complex logical operations using a mix of AND/OR across multiple Price Conditions.

 Use Case:

When a Price Rule has three or more conditions and requires specific combinations of AND and OR logic, the Custom option is required.

 Implementation:

Navigate to the Price Rule.

Set Condition Met to Custom.

Specify the logic (e.g., (Condition 1 AND Condition 2) OR Condition 3).

 Validation:This ensures Salesforce CPQ evaluates the Price Rule as intended, supporting mixed logical conditions.

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers wants to restrict sales reps to accessing only region-specific Products while allowing managers to access all Products.

 Solution:

C. Price Books per Region: Create a separate Price Book for each region, associating only the relevant Products. Share each Price Book with the respective sales reps.

D. Product Rules: Use Product Rules to hide Products from sales reps outside their assigned regions.

 Steps to Configure:

Price Book Setup:

Navigate to Price Books.

Create a Price Book for each region and associate the specific Products.

Use Sharing Rules to share the Price Books with the appropriate sales reps.

Product Rule Setup:

Create a Product Rule with a Condition to hide Products based on the user’s region.

 Validation:

Test by logging in as a sales rep and verifying that they can only see Products for their assigned region.

 Dynamic Features:

A Dynamic Feature allows administrators to automatically update or populate Product Options for a bundle based on defined rules and conditions.

 Filter Product Rules:

Applying a Filter Product Rule ensures that only relevant or newly available products appear as options for the bundle. This reduces manual maintenance while keeping the bundle dynamic.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Dynamic Features and Filter Product Rules are part of advanced bundling techniques documented under Product Configuration ​.

 Requirement:

Certain products should only be available as part of a bundle, not sold separately.

 Solution:

Setting the Component checkbox to TRUE on the Product ensures it is only available as a component within a bundle.

 Why Other Options are Incorrect:

A: Removing Price Book Entries restricts pricing but does not limit availability.

B: Configuration Event field is unrelated to this functionality.

D: Product Rules are not required for this basic configuration.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

The Component checkbox functionality is documented under Product Configuration in CPQ ​.

 Scenario:

Product A has a 36-month Subscription Term with a List Price of $36,000.

Product B has a 1-month Subscription Term with a List Price of $2,000.

Quote Subscription Term is 18 months.

 Calculation:

Product A Prorate Multiplier = 18 / 36 = 0.5.

Net Total = $36,000 × 15 × 0.5 = $270,000.

Product B Prorate Multiplier = 18 / 1 = 18.

Net Total = $2,000 × 15 × 18 = $36,000.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: The Net Total for Product B is incorrectly inflated.

C: The Prorate Multiplier for Product B should reflect the Quote Term-to-Subscription Term ratio, not default to 1.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Prorated pricing and multiplier calculations are explained in Subscription Pricing Guidelines ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Adjust the List Price dynamically based on the geographic area using a custom Price Multiplier stored in a custom object.

 Solution Details:

Custom List Unit Price Field: Store the adjusted List Price for the specific geographic area.

Lookup Price Rule: Retrieve the multiplier from the custom object and calculate the adjusted List Price.

 Steps to Configure:

Create a Custom Field (e.g., Custom List Unit Price) on the Quote Line.

Create a Lookup Price Rule to:

Retrieve the Price Multiplier from the custom object.

Calculate and populate the custom List Unit Price field.

 Validation:

Generate a Quote and confirm the List Price reflects the appropriate multiplier for the geographic area.

 Requirement Overview:

A product needs to support both renewable subscriptions (annual) and evergreen subscriptions (monthly, lasting perpetually).

 Solution:

C. Renewable/Evergreen: Set the Subscription Type field to Renewable/Evergreen to support both behaviors.

D. Default Subscription Term: Allow sales reps to define whether the subscription is sold monthly or annually by exposing the Default Subscription Term field in the Quote Line Editor.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Product Record.

Set the Subscription Type to Renewable/Evergreen.

Add the Default Subscription Term field to the Quote Line Editor Field Set.

 Validation:

Confirm that sales reps can toggle between selling the product monthly or annually.

 Issue Context:

Not all Quote Lines are generating Opportunity Product records during the Amendment process.

 Possible Causes:

A. Net Total = 0:

Salesforce CPQ does not create Opportunity Products for Quote Lines with a Net Total of zero.

D. Exclude from Opportunity:

If the Product has the Exclude from Opportunity checkbox set to TRUE, it prevents Opportunity Product creation.

 Steps to Investigate:

Verify the Net Total of the Quote Lines.

Check the Product configuration for the Exclude from Opportunity setting.

 Validation:

Update the relevant fields and test the Amendment process to ensure all eligible Quote Lines generate Opportunity Products.

To update Product Option B’s quantity in real time when Product Option A is selected, a Price Rule must trigger dynamically in the configurator. Option A sets the Evaluation Scope to "Configurator" (for real-time updates during configuration), the Configurator Evaluation Event to "Edit" (triggering when edits occur), and "Apply Immediately" on Product Option B (ensuring its quantity updates instantly). Option B (Calculator scope) applies during price calculation, not real-time configuration. Option C targets Product Option A’s immediacy, but the rule must affect B’s quantity. Option D combines Calculator scope with A’s immediacy, missing the real-time configurator need. Salesforce CPQ documentation supports Configurator scope for real-time updates.

 Scenario Breakdown:

Product A has a base list price of $100.

A quantity of 15 is entered on the quote.

Gold Hardware Maintenance Discount applies because contracted pricing is enabled.

Discount for the quantity range (11–20) is 15% (as shown in the table).

 Net Price Calculation:

List Price = $100

Discount = 15%

Quantity = 15

Net Total Price = $100 × 15 × (1 - 0.15) = $1,275.

 Justification for Selected Discount:According to Salesforce CPQ guidelines, when contracted pricing applies, it takes precedence over other Discount Schedules. The Gold Discount Schedule is therefore applied.

 Testing and Validation:Test the configuration using a sample quote to ensure the correct schedule is applied and the net total price matches the expected value.

 Bundle Configuration:

Small Storage Container (Option 1): $2.00 × 10 = $20.00

Shipping (Option 4): $7.50 (bundled).

Other Options (Option 2 and Option 3):

Medium Storage Container: Not selected.

Custom Box Label: Not selected.

 Calculation:

Bundle Parent Product Price: $5.00

Total Price: $5.00 (bundle) + $20.00 (Option 1) + $7.50 (Option 4) = $25.00

 Why Other Answers Are Incorrect:

A: Ignores bundled Option 4 price.

C: Includes non-selected options in the total.

D: Excludes all Option prices, which is inaccurate.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Bundling logic and pricing are covered under Bundle Configuration Guidelines ​.

 Field Location and API Name:

The custom text field Additional_Text__c resides on the Quote object.

In Salesforce CPQ, the correct syntax to reference fields in HTML templates is to use the merge field syntax appropriate to the object.

 Syntax Explanation:

{!quote.Additional_Text__c} directly references the field from the Quote object in a format recognized by the CPQ document generation engine.

Alternative options such as {ISBQQ__Quote__r.Additional_Text__c} reference lookup relationships and do not apply here.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

As per the Quote Template Content documentation, use the merge fields directly associated with the object being utilized in the template ​.

When amending a contract in Salesforce CPQ, the net pricing of products can sometimes appear incorrect, especially when quantities are adjusted on existing subscriptions. The "Revised Quantity" field on the Subscription record is used during amendments to reflect the updated quantity of a subscription product after the amendment. If this field is set incorrectly or unexpectedly (e.g., manually or via automation), it can override the expected quantity and cause discrepancies in pricing calculations, especially for existing products. This aligns with the scenario where the issue only occurs when quantities are adjusted on existing products. Option B (Price Rule firing On Calculate) could affect pricing but typically wouldn’t target only existing products or cause quantity-specific issues unless explicitly designed to do so. Option C (Price Rule firing Before Calculate) might alter pricing but wouldn’t directly tie to quantity adjustments on amendments. OptionD (Discount Schedule with Cross Order unselected) affects pricing tiers but isn’t directly related to amendment quantity adjustments. Per Salesforce CPQ documentation, the "Revised Quantity" field is a key factor in amendment scenarios impacting pricing consistency.

 Requirement:Populate a Configuration Attribute with a dynamic value when the configurator page loads.

 Solution Mechanics:

Process Builder can be used to dynamically set values on records based on predefined logic.

By targeting the Product Option field, which maps to the Configuration Attribute, Process Builder ensures that the value is set upon record creation.

 Steps to Implement:

Create a new Process Builder.

Trigger on the creation of the Quote Line record (or related record based on Configuration Attribute setup).

Define criteria to determine the dynamic value.

Use the Update Records action to populate the Product Option field with the default value.

 Advantages of Process Builder:

Allows for dynamic and conditional logic.

Automates the default value population without user intervention.

 Testing and Validation:

Create a test bundle with the Configuration Attribute.

Load the configurator and verify that the attribute is pre-populated.

 Scenario Overview:

The Additional Discount field cannot be edited during amendments by design in Salesforce CPQ.

 Explanation:

Salesforce CPQ locks certain fields on amendment Quotes to preserve the original pricing structure and prevent inconsistencies.

 Validation:

This behavior is standard and cannot be overridden without customizations.

&type=1

 Scenario:

Automatically select the Diamond Warranty Option in the child bundle if Premium Container is selected in the parent bundle and no warranty is selected.

 Solution:

Child Bundle Condition Level = 1: Ensures the condition applies at the child bundle level.

Child Bundle Action Level = None: Prevents overwriting user-selected options but enables automatic defaulting when none are selected.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B & C: Setting inappropriate levels may lead to overwriting user selections or incorrect rule execution.

D: Setting both levels to None results in no action or condition enforcement.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Configuration rules and child bundle handling are outlined in CPQ Bundle Configuration Guidelines ​

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers needs to attach required PDF documents stored in Salesforce Documents to the Quote output.

 Solution:

Use the Additional Document feature on the Quote Template to include PDF files in the generated output.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Quote Template.

Create an Additional Document for each required PDF:

Reference the document stored in Salesforce.

Save the Quote Template.

 Validation:

Generate a Quote document and confirm that the Additional Documents are included as attachments.

Scenario Breakdown:

List Price = $100

Quantity = 5

Discount Schedule Type = Slab

Discount Unit = Percent

Slab Discount Mechanism:

In a Slab Discount Schedule, the discount applies to the units within each tier individually, not cumulatively.

If the quantity is within the first slab, no discount applies unless specified for that slab.

Calculation:

Assuming the Discount Schedule for the first slab (1–5) has a 6% discount:

Regular Unit Price = List Price × (1 - Discount Percent)

Regular Unit Price = $100 × (1 - 0.06) = $94 per unit.

For 5 units: Total Price = $94 × 5 = $470.

Validation:This approach aligns with Salesforce CPQ Discount Schedule functionality for Slab Type Discount​​.

==================

 Requirement Overview:

A product must be priced as 10% of the total fixed-priced products on the Quote.

 Solution Details:

Option A:

Setting the Pricing Method to Percent of Total ensures the price is calculated as a percentage of the total value of other products.

The Subscription Pricing is left blank since it is not a subscription product.

Option D:

Set the Pricing Method to List and Subscription Pricing to Percent of Total to achieve the same result with flexibility for subscription-based products.

 Scenario:

A Price Rule utilizes a Lookup Object and Lookup Queries, and multiple records meet the criteria for a single Quote Line.

 Behavior:

When more than one lookup record meets the criteria, Salesforce CPQ does not apply any value to the Target Field. Instead:

The Target Field retains its original value.

An error message is displayed in the Quote Line Editor, notifying the user of the conflict.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A & D: Salesforce CPQ does not resolve ties by sorting records alphabetically.

C: The system does not apply values based on record creation date.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Lookup Queries behavior and error-handling are outlined in CPQ Price Rules Configuration Guidelines ​.

 Requirement Overview:

When renewing Contracts with Premier Support, it must automatically be replaced with Premier Pro.

 Solution:

The Renewal Product field on the Product record allows admins to specify a replacement Product for renewals.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Premier Support Product record.

Populate the Renewal Product field with Premier Pro.

Save and test the renewal process to confirm Premier Pro replaces Premier Support on the Quote.

 Validation:

Ensure all renewal Quotes replace Premier Support with Premier Pro automatically.

 Requirement:

Sell a non-renewable support SKU in 1-month increments, with the ability to cancel before the agreed end date.

 Solution:

SubscriptionType = One-Time: Ensures the product is treated as a one-time charge, not renewable.

SubscriptionTerm = Number of Months: Allows the quote to define the length of the support agreement.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A and C: These configurations do not align with the requirement to sell support in defined monthly increments.

D: Marking the product as Renewable contradicts the requirement that the product is non-renewable.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

SubscriptionType and SubscriptionTerm fields are detailed in the Subscription Products configuration guide ​.

 Unsegmented Product Setup:

By setting the Default Pricing Table to Standard, the product appears unsegmented when first added to a quote.

This allows users to manually segment the product later if necessary.

 Default Pricing Table Configuration:

The Standard table ensures that pricing is applied uniformly across the quote without segmentation.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

This behavior is defined in the Price Dimension Configuration Guidelines in CPQ documentation .

 Requirement:

The processor is priced differently when sold as a standalone product versus as part of a laptop bundle.

 Solution:

Marking the processor as Bundled ensures the discounted price applies only when it is part of the laptop bundle.

 Mechanism:

When the Bundled checkbox is TRUE, Salesforce CPQ applies the discounted pricing for bundle components based on the defined Price Book Entry.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Bundled pricing behavior is described in the Product Option and Bundle Configuration Guidelines ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers needs to send Approval Requests to both the Deal Desk and Finance teams simultaneously.

 Solution:

Use Advanced Approvals to configure multiple Approval Steps within a single Approval Chain.

Set the steps to run in parallel to minimize the time required for approval.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to Advanced Approvals in Salesforce CPQ.

Create an Approval Chain with two steps: one for the Deal Desk and one for the Finance team.

Configure both steps to run in parallel by assigning them the same step number.

 Advanced Approvals Context:

The Opportunity Object is configured out-of-the-box to integrate fully with Advanced Approvals.

Other objects, like the CPQ Quote or Quote Line, may require additional customization.

 Functionality:

Advanced Approvals use Approval Rules, Chains, and Conditions to automate the approval process.

Predefined templates and configurations are readily available for the Opportunity Object.

 Validation:

After installation of the Advanced Approvals package, confirm the Opportunity Object's configuration. No additional setup is required for basic functionality​​.

 Issue Context:

Some Opportunity Products are not syncing from the Quote, causing pipeline inaccuracies.

 Troubleshooting Steps:

A. Ensure the Quote’s Account lookup is populated:

A missing Account lookup can prevent synchronization as it ties the Quote to the Opportunity.

B. Ensure the Opportunity’s Primary Quote lookup is populated:

The Primary Quote must be explicitly linked to the Opportunity for synchronization to occur.

E. Check the Quote’s Primary checkbox for a value of True:

Only the Primary Quote syncs Opportunity Products. Ensure the checkbox is set to True.

 Validation:

Verify that Opportunity Products sync correctly after ensuring these fields are properly populated.

 Requirement Overview:

Each sales team needs access to a specific subset of products without requiring separate Price Books.

 Solution:

Use multiple bundles with validation Product Rules to restrict access to specific products based on user criteria (e.g., Profile or custom field).

This avoids the need to create and manage separate Price Books for each team.

 Steps to Configure:

Create a bundle for each subset of products.

Use Product Rules to validate and restrict access based on sales team criteria.

 Validation:

Test the Product Selection page to ensure that each sales team can access only their specific subset of products.

 Requirement:

Ensure a product priced as a Percent of Total has a minimum price of $100.

 Solution Steps:

Option A: Create a Price Book Entry of $100 to set the minimum price for the product.

Option D: Create a $0 Price Book Entry to handle scenarios where Percent of Total calculation would otherwise drop below $100.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B: The custom Percent_of_Total_Target_c field is not used for minimum pricing enforcement.

C: The Percent of Total Constraint field alone does not enforce minimum pricing.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Percent of Total pricing and minimum price settings are described in CPQ Pricing Configuration ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Product A must always be included in the bundle.

Product B should be included by default but can be removed by the user.

 Key Configurations:

Required = FALSE: This ensures that Product B is not mandatory and can be removed by the user.

Selected = TRUE: This includes Product B by default when the bundle is added to the Quote.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Product Option record for Product B.

Set Required to FALSE.

Set Selected to TRUE.

Save and test the behavior by adding the bundle to a Quote.

 Validation:

Product B should be pre-selected in the Quote Line Editor but can be deselected by the user.

This setup ensures flexibility for Product B while ensuring Product A remains mandatory​​.

Universal Containers requires a dynamic approach to display the Monthly Price column on the Quote Document only when the Payment Terms field is set to "Net 30". Here's how to achieve this:

Step 1: Create a Monthly Price Line Column

Navigate to Quote Templates in Salesforce CPQ.

Select the relevant Quote Template.

In the Line Columns related list:

Create a new Line Column for "Monthly Price."

Configure the desired settings for how the Monthly Price should display in the PDF.

Step 2: Create a Custom Formula Field

Navigate to Setup > Object Manager > Quote.

Create a custom formula field (e.g., Show_Monthly_Price) on the Quote object:

Type: Formula (Checkbox).

Formula Logic: IF(Payment_Terms__c = "Net 30", TRUE, FALSE).

Replace Payment_Terms__c with the API name of the Payment Terms field.

This formula ensures the field returns TRUE only when Payment Terms equals "Net 30."

Step 3: Configure Conditional Print Field on the Line Column

Return to the Quote Template and edit the Monthly Price Line Column.

Set the Conditional Print Field to Show_Monthly_Price.

This links the visibility of the Monthly Price column to the custom formula field you created​​.

Step 4: Validate in Quote Document

Generate a Quote Document for a Quote where Payment Terms are set to "Net 30."

The Monthly Price column should appear in the PDF.

Change the Payment Terms to a value other than "Net 30" and regenerate the document.

The Monthly Price column should not appear.

Step 5: Optional Enhancements

Discard Width When Hidden:In the Monthly Price Line Column, enable this setting to avoid column width adjustments when the column is hidden.

Test Across Use Cases:Validate across different Payment Terms to ensure robust behavior.

By using a combination of the Conditional Print Field and a custom formula field, Universal Containers can dynamically control the visibility of the Monthly Price column​​.

 Requirement Overview:

Ensure that the Configuration Attribute value is retained when reconfiguring a bundle.

 Solution:

Create a twin field on the Quote Line object with the same API name as the Configuration Attribute. This allows the value to persist and be passed between configurations.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to Setup > Object Manager > Quote Line.

Create a new custom field with the same API name as the Configuration Attribute.

Test the configuration to ensure the value persists during reconfiguration.

 Hierarchy of Discount Schedule Application:Salesforce CPQ applies Discount Schedules based on object precedence.

Contracted Price: Overrides Discount Schedules at the Product or Feature level when specific pricing agreements are in place for an Account.

Product Option: A Discount Schedule on a Product Option takes precedence over one defined at the Product Feature level.

 Key Configurations:

Contracted Price: Navigate to the Contracted Price record and add the Discount Schedule.

Product Option: Assign the Discount Schedule on the Product Option record.

 Validation:

Test configurations to confirm the Discount Schedule is applied at the appropriate level and overrides the Feature-level Discount Schedule.

 Requirement:

Ensure that the cubic volume selected at the bundle level applies to all Product Options.

 Solution:

Option C: Setting the Configuration Attribute's Apply to Product Options to True ensures the selected value cascades to all Product Options within the bundle.

Option D: Creating a bundle-level Configuration Attribute allows sales reps to select a single cubic volume value that governs all Product Options in the bundle.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Lookup Price Rules reference external objects but are not relevant to syncing a volume value across Product Options.

B: Feature-level Configuration Attributes are scoped to specific features, not the entire bundle.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

The functionality of Configuration Attributes and their application to Product Options is documented in Bundle Configuration Guidelines ​.
