 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers wants to create a subscription product that will persist indefinitely unless canceled by the customer.

 Key Configuration:

The Evergreen value in the Subscription Type field defines a perpetual subscription in Salesforce CPQ.

Using a Price Rule ensures this field is dynamically set on each Quote Line for the product, automating downstream processes such as contract generation and order management.

 Steps to Implement:

Create a Price Rule targeting the Quote Line object.

Set the Subscription Type field to Evergreen for the relevant Quote Lines.

Activate and test the Price Rule to confirm the behavior.

 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.

 Requirement Overview:

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Quote Template.

Add the PDF file under the Additional Documents section.

Mark it as required for automatic inclusion.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

The Additional Documents feature simplifies document management in Quote Templates ​.

 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 ​.

 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 ​

 Validation:

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

Requirement Overview:

A product priced at 100 USD and 95 EUR needs to be included as part of a bundle.

Solution:

Bundled Products: Setting the Bundled field to True ensures the product is included in the bundle's total price.

Configure the Price Book Entries with the required prices for the respective currencies.

Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Product in the 2019 Price Book.

Set 100 USD and 95 EUR as the Price Book Entries.

On the Product Option, mark the Bundled field as True.

Validation:

Test the bundle by adding it to a Quote and verifying the correct pricing behavior.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Field Set named Active Contract Lookup on the Contract Object.

Add the custom Contract Name field to the Field Set.

 Validation:

Test the Amendment process to confirm that the Contract Name field is visible.

 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.

 Requirement:

Ensure the Support SKU is available only in USD and EUR.

 Expected Behavior:

USD: The product is available and uses the Pricebook Entry's List Price.

EUR: The product is available and uses the Pricebook Entry's List Price.

GBP: The product is unavailable due to the absence of a Pricebook Entry in GBP.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A & D: These imply product unavailability in all currencies, which contradicts the configuration.

B: GBP would not add the product with a zero List Price due to Pricebook Entry restrictions.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Multi-currency behavior and product availability are documented under CPQ Pricing and Product Management ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers wants to sell monthly subscriptions and round additional days up to the nearest month when calculating prorated prices.

 Solution Details:

Subscription Term Unit = Month: Ensures that subscriptions are billed on a monthly basis.

Subscription Prorate Precision = Month: Rounds up additional days to the next month.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to CPQ Package Settings > Subscription and Renewal Settings.

Set the Subscription Term Unit to Month.

Set the Subscription Prorate Precision to Month.

Save and test the configuration by creating a Quote with subscription products.

 Validation:

Ensure that additional days are rounded up to the next month in the prorated pricing calculation​​.

Select the Use Price for Amount checkbox to treat the tier values as Regular Prices.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Discount Schedule Record.

Set the Discount Unit to Amount.

Select All from the Override Behavior picklist.

Check the Use Price for Amount box.

 Validation:

Test the Discount Schedule to ensure the defined tier values are treated as Regular Prices.

A. Leverage Salesforce automation to select the Order by Quote Line Group field on the Quote.

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​​.

 Scenario Breakdown:

List Price = $100.00 per unit.

Quantity = 21 units.

Discount Schedule:

First Level (1–11 units): 10% discount.

Second Level (11–21 units): 25% discount.

Third Level (21+ units): 50% discount.

 Slab Discount Calculation:

First Level (1–11 units):

Price = $100 × 10 = $1,000

Discount = 10% = $1,000 × 0.10 = $100

Net = $1,000 - $100 = $900

Second Level (11–21 units):

Price = $100 × 10 = $1,000

Discount = 25% = $1,000 × 0.25 = $250

Net = $1,000 - $250 = $750

Total Net = $900 + $750 = $1,700

 Validation:This matches Salesforce CPQ's standard behavior for Slab Discount Schedules, where discounts are applied per tier.

 Requirement Overview:

Admin needs to enable Additional Discounts at both the Quote and Group levels in the Line Editor.

 Solution Steps:

For the Quote Object:

Navigate to Setup > Object Manager > Quote.

Locate the Line Editor Field Set.

Add the Additional Disc. (%) field to the field set.

For the Quote Line Group Object:

Navigate to Setup > Object Manager > Quote Line Group.

Locate the Line Editor Field Set.

Add the Additional Disc. (%) field to the field set.

 Testing:

Open the Quote Line Editor and confirm the visibility of the Additional Discount fields at both levels.

 Requirement Overview:

A group of users should receive Approval requests simultaneously, and only one user's response is required to approve.

 Key Configuration:

Use a Group ID to associate the group of approvers.

Setting Unanimous = False ensures that only one approval is needed to proceed.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Approver Record related to the Approval Rule.

Reference the appropriate Group ID.

Set the Unanimous checkbox to False.

 Validation:

Test the Approval process by submitting a Quote for approval and confirming that one approval suffices.

 Requirement Overview:

Prevent non-admin users from editing a specific Quote Term.

 Key Configuration:

The Locked checkbox on a Quote Term record ensures that the term is non-editable for all users except admins.

 Steps to Implement:

Navigate to the Quote Term record.

Check the Locked checkbox.

Save and test by logging in as a non-admin user to confirm editing is disabled.

 Requirement:

Ensure the correct Distributor Discount is applied to Quote Lines based on the distributor's Discount_Level__c field value.

 Solution:

Configurator Scoped Price Rule:

A Price Condition checks whether the SBQQ__Quote__r.Distributor__c field is populated.

If the field is blank, the rule does not execute.

Price Action:

Injects the value of the Discount_Level__c field from the Distributor account into the Quote Line's SBQQ__DistributorDiscount__c field.

 Why Option A is Correct:

Configurator Scope ensures the rule is evaluated during configuration, applying discounts dynamically as the Quote is edited.

 Why Option B is Incorrect:

Calculator Scoped Price Rules execute during calculations (not configuration), which may result in delayed discount updates.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Price Rules and their scopes are documented in the CPQ Pricing Logic Configuration ​.

 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 Overview:

Identify any Quotes where a discount has been applied to options within a bundle.

 Solution Details:

B. Summary Variable:

Use a Summary Variable to check if any Quote Line within the bundle has a Discount > 0.

Configure the Max aggregation function to evaluate discounts.

C. Price Condition:

Add a condition to check if the Discount field (SBQQ__Discount__c) on a Quote Line is greater than 0.

 Steps to Configure:

Summary Variable:

Navigate to Summary Variables and create one with:

Target Object: Quote Line.

Aggregate Function: Max.

Aggregate Field: SBQQ__Discount__c.

Price Condition:

Add a condition to the Price Rule:

Object: Quote Line.

Field: SBQQ__Discount__c.

Operator: Greater Than.

Filter Value: 0.

 Validation:

Add bundle options with discounts to a Quote and verify that the rule identifies the discounted options.

 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:

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:

The Create Order button generates an Order with half the Quote Lines, and the Ordered checkbox is selected.

 Outcome:

When the Ordered checkbox is checked, remaining Quote Lines are eligible for a new Order. A second Order will be generated for the remaining lines.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: An Order without Order Products is invalid in this scenario.

C: No error is thrown because multiple Orders are allowed from the Quote.

D: Existing Orders are not updated with new Quote Lines.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

The behavior of the Create Order button is detailed in CPQ Order Management documentation ​.

 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.

 Requirement:

Hide products with the Product Family "Software" when a Configuration Attribute is set to "Perpetual."

 Solution:

Use an Error Condition to evaluate the Product Family value on the Product Option record.

Configure a Product Action to Show all products except those with the Product Family "Software."

 Mechanism:

The Error Condition evaluates the Configuration Attribute's value against the Product Option.

The Product Action ensures visibility is dynamically controlled based on the evaluated condition.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Error Conditions and Product Actions are key components of Product Rules in CPQ to implement dynamic product behavior ​.

 CPQ Price Calculation Sequence:

The Regular Price is calculated as part of the price waterfall, and several factors influence it.

 Key Contributors:

Prorate Multiplier: Adjusts prices for subscription products based on term alignment.

Contracted Price: Overrides the List Price for specific customers.

Discount Schedules: Apply volume or tiered discounts during price calculation.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Additional Discount Fields apply after Regular Price is calculated.

D: Target Customer Amount is used in quoting, not directly in Regular Price calculation.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Price waterfall and Regular Price contributors are detailed in CPQ Pricing Configuration ​.

 Requirement:

When a fixed bundle is selected, users should bypass the configuration process entirely.

 Solution:

Setting the Configuration Type to Allowed ensures users can configure the bundle if necessary.

Setting the Configuration Event to Always skips the configuration process automatically for preconfigured bundles.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Setting Configuration Type to Disabled prevents any configuration, which may not align with future flexibility requirements.

B: Required forces configuration instead of skipping it.

D: Configuration Event = Add requires the user to manually trigger the process during addition.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Bundle Configuration Settings and their implications are detailed in CPQ Configuration Guidelines ​.

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.

References:

Verified from Salesforce CPQ official guidelines on "Required" field functionality for Product Options​​.

 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:

Prevent users from selecting both Product C and Product D in a bundle configuration.

 Solution:

Using an Option Constraint with Type = Exclusion ensures that selecting one product automatically excludes the other.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Dependency constraints ensure one product depends on another, which is the opposite of the requirement.

B & D: Setting Min Options and Max Options in a Product Feature does not enforce mutual exclusivity.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Option Constraints and their configuration are detailed in CPQ Bundling Guidelines ​.

 Requirement:

Bundle products should show on the Product Selection page, but their Product Options should not.

 Solution:

Setting the Component checkbox to TRUE for Product Options ensures they are excluded from the Product Selection page and only appear within their bundles.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B: The Hidden field does not dynamically manage visibility for Product Options.

C & D: Marking products inactive makes them completely unavailable, which is not the requirement.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

The Component checkbox’s functionality is explained in Product Configuration ​.

 Requirement:

Group products in collapsible sections based on Product Family in the Add Products page.

 Solution:

Set the Product Results Group Field Name in Additional Settings to Product Family. This groups products by their Product Family in the Add Products page.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Solution Groups apply to Quote Lines, not the Add Products page.

B: Adding fields to the Search Results Field Set does not enable grouping functionality.

C: The Product Search Plugin is unrelated to grouping.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Configuring product grouping is detailed in CPQ Product Search and Results Configuration ​.

 Subscription Product Configuration:

Product B uses the Percent of Total pricing model based on Product A's Net Price.

Product B's Percent of Total Base is set to "Net," and its Percent of Total Target is set to Product A.

Product B's Percent of Total (%) is configured as 10%.

 Calculation:

Product A Net Total = $2,400

Product B Net Total = 10% of Product A Net Total = 2,400×0.1=2402,400 \times 0.1 = 2402,400×0.1=240.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Percent of Total pricing logic is described under Percent of Total Products ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Warranty pricing should be based on the discounted prices of hardware products.

 Solution Details:

The Percent of Total Base field determines the pricing basis for Percent of Total Products.

To ensure the price reflects discounted values, set the Percent of Total Base to Net Price.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Warranty Product record.

Update the Percent of Total Base field to Net Price.

Save and test the configuration by adding hardware products and the Warranty to a Quote.

 Validation:

The Warranty price should now calculate as 10% of the discounted prices of hardware products​​.

 Requirement:

Universal Containers wants to control whether the Additional Discount column appears on the Quote Template.

 Solution:

By creating a custom checkbox field (Show_Discount__c), administrators can dynamically control the visibility of the Additional Discount column.

This checkbox is referenced in the Conditional Print Field of the Quote Template Line Column settings for the Additional Discount column.

 Mechanism:

When the Show_Discount__c checkbox is TRUE, the column appears.

When FALSE, it does not display.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Conditional Print Field functionality in Quote Templates allows for dynamic content visibility based on field values ​.

 Requirement:

To allow sales reps to view a subset of products via a button in the Quote Line Editor.

 Solution:

A Custom Action with a Search Filter is configured to dynamically limit the displayed products.

 Mechanism:

The Custom Action triggers the Product Selection process, with the Search Filter applying criteria to display only the desired subset of products.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Custom Actions and Search Filters are documented as the preferred method to customize product visibility in the Product Selection process .

 Requirement Overview:

A user must have the ability to approve any approval request, regardless of who the request is assigned to.

 Solution:

Granting the Modify All Data permission provides administrative privileges across all Salesforce objects, including the ability to approve any approval request in Advanced Approvals.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the user’s Profile or Permission Set.

Add the Modify All Data permission.

Save and test the user’s ability to approve any request.

 Validation:

Confirm the user can approve approval requests without assignment restrictions.

 Issue:

Contract creation fails when the Contracted checkbox is checked on an Opportunity.

 Possible Causes:

A: If the Subscription Conversion Behavior is set to None, the product is not converted into a Subscription, preventing the Contract from being created.

B: The Opportunity requires a Primary Quote to generate a Contract, as the Contract details are derived from the Quote.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

C: If the Subscription Pricing field is blank, the product is treated as non-subscription but does not prevent Contract creation.

D: Products with Subscription Pricing = One-time are not converted to Subscriptions, but they do not block Contract creation.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Contract creation requirements and behaviors are documented under CPQ Subscription Management Guidelines ​.

 Issue Context:

The custom field is not being updated by the Price Rule even after enabling triggers in the CPQ Package Settings.

 Root Cause:

After creating new fields or updates, the Post Install Script must be executed to register custom fields in the Calculator Referenced Fields list.

 Solution Steps:

Navigate to Setup > Installed Packages > Salesforce CPQ.

Locate the Post Install Scripts section and click Run.

Test the Price Rule again to verify that the custom field is updated correctly.

 Salesforce CPQ Documentation Reference:

Custom fields must be registered with the calculator for the Price Rule engine to interact with them properly​​.

Requirement:

Separate products into different Line Item tables by Product Family when rendering a document.

Solution:

The Group Field functionality within a single Template Section can group Line Items by Product Family dynamically, avoiding the need for multiple Template Sections.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B & D: Creating multiple Template Sections for each Product Family introduces redundancy and is less efficient.

C: LineSortField sorts products but does not create separate tables.

Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Group Field functionality is explained in the Quote Templates and Template Sections guidelines ​.

 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 Overview:

A Percent of Total option in a multi-level bundle must calculate its value based on other options in the same level.

 Key Configuration:

The Percent of Total Scope field determines the scope of the calculation.

Setting it to Components limits the calculation to options within the same bundle level.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Product Option record for the Percent of Total option.

Set Percent of Total Scope to Components.

 Validation:

Add the bundle to a Quote and verify that the Percent of Total calculation includes only the options at the same level.

 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.

 Requirement Overview:

The Require Approved Quote setting prevents certain records from being created without an approved Quote.

 Solution Details:

When this setting is enabled, Salesforce CPQ blocks the creation of Order records unless the associated Quote has been approved.

 Validation:

Test by attempting to create an Order from an unapproved Quote and confirming that the system blocks the action.

 Approval Scenarios in Advanced Approvals:Salesforce CPQ Advanced Approvals allows flexible approval processes, including the ability to handle group approvals within a single step.

 Key Features:

Any group member may approve: If this option is configured, approval from one group member is sufficient to move the approval step forward.

All group members must approve: When this option is selected, every group member must approve the request before the step can proceed.

 Configuration Steps:

Navigate to the Approval Rule and ensure that the Approval Chain or Approval Step is configured to support group-based logic.

Specify the behavior for the group in the Approval Step Settings.

 Use Cases:

Use "Any group member may approve" for time-sensitive scenarios.

Use "All group members must approve" for critical approvals that require consensus.

 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​​.

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers wants to show Quote Line items grouped by Product Family with subtotals for each family in Quote Documents.

 Solution Details:

Salesforce CPQ allows grouping of Line Items in Quote Templates.

Setting SBQQ__ProductFamily__c as the Group field organizes the Quote Lines into separate sections for each Product Family.

 Configuration Steps:

Navigate to the Quote Template.

In the Grouping field, set SBQQ__ProductFamily__c.

Save and test the template by generating a Quote Document.

 Validation:

Confirm that the generated document displays separate tables for Hardware, Software, and Professional Services, with subtotals for each group.

 Requirement Overview:

Sales reps need to know when manual overrides on a Discount Schedule will remain unaffected by Admin updates.

 Key Behavior:

When the Save or Quick Save button is clicked, the manual override is committed, and the Discount Schedule changes made by the Admin will not affect it.

 Validation:

Test the behavior by manually overriding a discount, saving the Quote, and confirming that Admin updates to the Discount Schedule do not impact the saved Quote.

 Issue Context:

A Contract could not be created from an Order for a new customer.

 Troubleshooting Steps:

A. Confirm Order Product Activation:

Contracts can only be generated for activated Order Products.

C. Check Apex Jobs:

Errors in the contracting process are logged in Apex Jobs. Review these logs for potential issues.

E. Ensure Subscription-Based Order Product:

Contracts require at least one subscription-based Product on the Order.

 Validation:

Verify that all conditions are met and retest the Contract creation process.

 Requirement Overview:

Configure tiered pricing for Product A specific to a customer for all future Quotes.

 Solution Details:

Use a Discount Schedule with tiered pricing.

Assign the Discount Schedule to a Contracted Price record tied to the customer's Account.

 Steps to Configure:

Create the Discount Schedule with the desired tiers.

Navigate to the customer’s Account.

Create a Contracted Price record:

Reference Product A.

Assign the Discount Schedule.

 Validation:

Generate a Quote for the customer and confirm the tiered pricing is applied correctly.

Template Sections: Define sections of the quote.

Line Columns: Specify how data appears in tables within the quote.

Template Content: Includes HTML and text for the quote layout.

Quote Terms: Define legal or contractual terms.

Term Conditions: Conditions related to the terms.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Best practices for Quote Template imports align with Salesforce CPQ implementation guides for maintaining dependencies .

 Requirement:

Set Product A’s price back to its List Price ($300) for a business unit account while ignoring parent account contracted pricing.

 Solution Steps:

Option B: Create a new contracted price record for Product A at $300 for the business unit account.

Option D: Mark the Ignore Parent Contracted Prices checkbox as TRUE on the business unit account to override inherited contracted pricing.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: This would affect all contracted prices under the parent account, which is not the desired behavior.

C: Creating a new contracted price with Ignore Parent Contracted Prices set to TRUE is redundant; the account-level setting (D) achieves this.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Contracted Pricing functionality, including parent-child account handling, is outlined in CPQ Pricing Guidelines ​.

Comprehensive Detailed Step-by-Step Explanation with all Salesforce CPQ References

To split orders based on product family when creating orders from quotes in Salesforce CPQ, the following steps must be followed:

Enable the Allow Multiple Orders Setting

Navigate to Setup > Installed Packages and locate Salesforce CPQ.

Click Configure, then go to the Orders tab in the CPQ package settings.

Check the Allow Multiple Orders option. This allows multiple orders to be created from a single quote.

This setting ensures that products can be grouped and split into separate orders based on specific criteria like Product Family​​.

Set the Order By Field to Product Family

From the object management settings for Quotes, edit the Order By field.

Add "Product Family" as a picklist value if it is not already available.

On the Quote, select Product Family in the Order By field.

Save your changes. When creating an order, Salesforce CPQ will group quote lines into separate orders based on the Product Family​​.

Process for Creating Orders

On the quote, select the Ordered checkbox.

Salesforce CPQ will automatically split the quote into multiple orders, grouping quote lines by the Product Family value​.

Notes and Considerations

If some quote lines do not have a value for the field used in the Order By, they will be grouped into one order.

This functionality is available in Salesforce CPQ editions starting from Summer ’16​​.

By following these steps, administrators can ensure that similar products are automatically separated into different orders based on their product family.

 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 ​.
