Salesforce CPQ-Specialist Salesforce Certified CPQ Specialist (SP25) Exam Practice Test

 Requirement Overview:

Prevent bundles from being reconfigured in Renewal Quotes while allowing configuration during new or amendment Quotes.

 Solution:

Use a Custom Action Condition to control when the Reconfigure Line action is available.

Set the condition to exclude Renewal Quotes (SBQQ__Type__c != "Renewal").

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Custom Action Condition related to the Reconfigure Line action.

Set the condition criteria to ensure the action is only available for non-Renewal Quotes.

 Validation:

Test by creating Renewal, New, and Amendment Quotes and verifying the Reconfigure Line action behaves as expected.

 Requirement:

Maintenance and Support products must display in separate sections during configuration.

Support products should appear above Maintenance products.

 Solution:

Product Features are used to organize Product Options into sections.

The Number field on Product Features determines the order in which the sections appear.

Support should have a lower Number value to appear above Maintenance.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

The Product Features Configuration Guidelines explain how to use features and their ordering mechanisms ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Enable Renewal Uplift for the Account to adjust pricing for renewals.

 Steps to Configure:

Renewal Pricing Method:

Navigate to the Account record.

Set the Renewal Pricing Method field to Uplift.

Renewal Uplift (%):

On the related Contract record, populate the Renewal Uplift (%) field with the desired percentage increase.

 Validation:

Test the renewal process by generating a Renewal Quote and ensuring the Uplift applies to subscription pricing.

 Requirement:

The Color of containers (a Configuration Attribute) must be displayed in the output document.

 Solution:

Create a Color field:

On Product Option: Captures the color selection during configuration.

On Quote Line: Ensures the selected color is carried forward to the quote document.

 Why Other Options are Incorrect:

B, D: These options do not account for both configuration and quote visibility requirements.

C: The Product object alone cannot store configuration-specific selections like color.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Configuration Attributes and their linkage to Quote Lines are documented in CPQ guidelines ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Assign generated Approval requests to the user's direct manager.

 Solution:

Salesforce CPQ's Advanced Approvals package includes the setting Next Automated Approver Determined By, which allows Approvals to be routed automatically to the user's manager.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Approval Process.

Set Next Automated Approver Determined By to Manager.

Save and test the Approval process to ensure it correctly assigns to the manager.

 Scenario:

Contracts are not being generated for activated Orders containing subscription-based products.

 Why Debug Logs?

Debug Logs capture real-time system activity, including Apex triggers and CPQ package processes.

They provide detailed error messages and can identify issues such as missing triggers, misconfigured objects, or dependency errors.

 Steps to Investigate:

Enable Debug Logs in Salesforce Setup for the affected user or system process.

Perform the action that generates the error (e.g., activating the Order).

Review the logs for errors related to Contract generation.

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:

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 ​.

Tiered pricing in Salesforce CPQ applies a cumulative price where each tier has a marginal rate (e.g., $9 per unit above 100). This matches the scenario: $1,000 for 0-100 units, then $9/unit for 101-500, $8/unit for 501-1,000, and $7/unit above 1,000, building on the prior tier’s total (e.g., $4,600 at 500). Option B (Tiered) supports this incremental pricing model. Option A (Block) uses fixed prices per range, not cumulative rates. Option C (Segmented) isn’t a standard CPQ pricing method. Option D (List) applies a flat unit price, ignoring tiers. Salesforce CPQ documentation defines Tiered pricing for this use case.

In Salesforce CPQ, amendments adjust subscription quantities incrementally. The original sale (Quote Line and Subscription) is 100. The first amendment reduces to 80, a decrease of 20, so the Quote Line is 80 (absolute), and the Subscription delta is -20 (reflecting the change). The second amendment increases to 120, an increase of 40 from 80, so the Quote Line is 120, and the Subscription delta is 40. Subscription quantities in amendments show the net change (-20, 40) rather than absolute values (80, 120), aligning with CPQ’s amendment mechanics. Option B correctly reflects this: Quote Lines (100, 80, 120) show user-facing totals, while Subscriptions (100, -20, 40) show deltas. Salesforce CPQ documentation explains this behavior in amendment scenarios.

 Requirement Overview:

Understand what impacts the number of query rows returned when using Lookup Rules in Salesforce CPQ.

 Factors:

C. Total Number of Quote Lines: Each Quote Line triggers a lookup, increasing the number of query rows.

D. Total Number of Fields on the Lookup Object: More fields on the object result in larger query rows.

E. Total Number of Lookup Queries: Multiple lookup queries executed during the Quote Line processing impact the total rows returned.

 Steps to Validate:

Analyze the Lookup Rule configuration and test its behavior with varying Quote Line counts, field sizes, and query numbers.

 Requirement Overview:

A customer requires specific pricing for their account.

 Solution:

B. Contracted Price Record:

Directly create a Contracted Price record related to the customer’s Account.

D. Contracted Checkbox:

Select the Contracted checkbox on the Quote record to generate a Contracted Price automatically when the Quote is finalized.

 Steps to Configure:

Option B:

Navigate to the Account and create a Contracted Price record for the specific Product and pricing.

Option D:

On the Quote, select the Contracted checkbox and ensure the Quote is synced to generate the Contracted Price.

Understanding the Requirement:

Within a bundle, Products A and B must be mutually exclusive, allowing the user to select either but not both.

If both products are selected, the system should automatically remove Product B and retain Product A.

Optimal Salesforce CPQ Solution:

Product Selection Rule:

This rule dynamically evaluates conditions and executes actions, such as adding or removing products.

It is suitable for automating the removal of conflicting products based on user selections.

Summary Variables:

Used to check if both products are selected during configuration.

Implementation Steps:

Step 1: Create a Product Rule:

Navigate to Product Rules in Salesforce CPQ.

Create a new rule with the following settings:

Type: Selection

Evaluation Event: Always

Scope: Product

Step 2: Define Error Conditions:

Add two Error Conditions to evaluate if both Product A and Product B are selected:

Error Condition 1: Check if Product A is selected using a Summary Variable.

Error Condition 2: Check if Product B is selected using a Summary Variable.

Step 3: Configure Product Action:

Add a Product Action to Remove Product B if both Error Conditions are true.

Ensure the rule prioritizes retaining Product A over Product B.

Rationale for Option A:

Option A is the most direct and efficient approach, leveraging Product Selection Rules to automatically enforce the requirement.

Options C and D use alert or validation rules, which display messages and rely on user intervention, failing the requirement of automatic resolution.

Option B introduces conflicting rules with differing evaluation orders, which can lead to complex and unpredictable behavior.

Validation and Testing:

Add the bundle to a Quote and configure it to select both Product A and Product B.

Verify that Product B is automatically removed, and Product A is retained.

 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.

 Scenario:

Apply a regional multiplier to the pricebook price and subsequently apply discounts.

 Solution:

The Customer Price field stores the post-regional multiplier price, enabling further discounting.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Special Price is used for manual overrides, not automated calculations.

B: Partner Price is unrelated to the customer's pricing structure.

D: List Price remains constant and does not reflect discounts or multipliers.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Price Rules and field updates are detailed in CPQ Pricing Logic Guidelines ​.

 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 ​.

 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 ​.

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:

Restrict the products visible during the configuration of a dynamic bundle.

 Solution:

Use a Default Filter in a Product Rule. This ensures only the specified set of products is displayed in the configurator for the dynamic bundle.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Optional filter is not a valid Product Action.

B: The Show action determines visibility but does not enforce restrictions on selections dynamically.

D: Enable action is used to activate a previously disabled product but does not filter selections.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Dynamic bundles and filtering actions are detailed in CPQ Product Rule Configuration Guidelines ​.

 Requirement:

Different profiles need to see distinct sets of fields in the Quote Line Editor.

 Solution:

Create two field sets on the Quote Line object, one for each profile.

Use a text formula field named EditLinesFieldSetName on the Quote object to dynamically return the appropriate field set name based on the user’s profile.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A & B: Field sets must be created on the Quote Line object, not the Quote object.

D: This duplicates C but introduces a typo or incorrect description in the explanation.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Field set configurations for the Quote Line Editor are detailed in CPQ Field Configuration Documentation ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers wants to update the Quantity of a specific Product in the Quote Line Editor via a Price Rule.

The Price Rule should target only this specific Product.

 Key Mechanism:

Use a Price Condition on the Price Rule to evaluate a Quote Line field that uniquely identifies the Product (e.g., Product Code or Product Name).

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Price Rule.

Add a Price Condition:

Field: Select a field from the Quote Line that identifies the Product.

Operator: Equals.

Value: Enter the unique value (e.g., Product Code or Name).

Configure the Price Action to update the Quantity field.

 Validation:

Test the rule by adding the specific Product to a Quote and confirming that the rule updates its Quantity as expected.

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.

 Requirement Overview:

Prevent the user from selecting Product B unless Product A is also selected in the bundle.

 Key Configurations:

Type = Dependency: Ensures that one Product is dependent on the selection of another.

Active = True: Activates the Option Constraint for use in the configurator.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Option Constraint record.

Set the Type to Dependency.

Mark the Active checkbox as True.

Define Constrained Option (Product B) and Constraining Option (Product A).

 Validation:

Add the bundle to a Quote and confirm that selecting Product B is only possible when Product A is also selected.

 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:

Restrict sales reps to only selecting subscription Products when using the Add Subscriptions Custom Action.

 Solution Details:

The Search Filter for the Add Subscriptions action should include only subscription Products.

Setting the Filter Value to Hidden ensures that only Products matching the filter criteria are displayed.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Search Filter related to the Add Subscriptions action.

Set the Filter Value to True.

Mark the Hidden checkbox to restrict visibility to subscription Products.

 Validation:

Test the Custom Action to confirm that only subscription Products are visible.

 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:

Ensure the Warranty Period from the Product is correctly transferred to the Asset record.

 Solution:

Create a twin field on the Quote Line because:

The Quote Line stores product-specific information during quoting.

When the Quote is contracted, the twin field ensures the value is passed to the Order Product and then to the Asset record.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: The Product Option is used within bundles and does not directly transfer to the Asset.

B: The Order Product receives data from the Quote Line, so the twin field must originate there.

C: The Opportunity Product is not involved in the CPQ twin field data flow.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Twin fields and their data flow from Quote Line to Asset are detailed in CPQ Field Mapping Documentation ​.

 Requirement:

Apply a 10% discount to Product A on the Quote Line if the customer has previously purchased Product A (stored as an Asset).

 Solution:

Summary Variable:

Sum the Quantity field on Asset records for Product A.

Price Condition:

Verify that the Summary Variable is greater than 0 to confirm the customer has purchased Product A.

 Why Other Options are Incorrect:

B: Quote Lines do not track prior purchases; Assets do.

C, D: These do not align with the requirement to verify prior purchases via Assets.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Summary Variables and their use in Price Rules are documented under CPQ Discounting Guidelines ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers wants to hide lid Products from the Product Selection screen since they are only sold as part of a container Product.

 Solution:

By selecting the Hidden checkbox on the lid Product record, the Product is removed from the Product Selection page while remaining available within bundles.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Product Record for each lid Product.

Select the Hidden checkbox.

Save the changes.

 Validation:

Verify that the lid Products no longer appear on the Product Selection screen but remain accessible as part of their parent container bundles.

 Requirement Overview:

The C-LID-L product (Lid) should only be selectable if the C-STOR-L product (Container) is included in the bundle.

 Key Configuration:

The Constrained Option field identifies the dependent option in an Option Constraint.

In this case, C-LID-L is the constrained option.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Option Constraint record.

Set C-LID-L as the Constrained Option.

Set C-STOR-L as the Constraining Option.

 Validation:

Add the bundle to a Quote and verify that C-LID-L is only available when C-STOR-L is selected.

 Issue:

Sales reps experience excessive horizontal scrolling to access the Clone and Delete actions in the Quote Line Editor.

 Solution:

Quote Line Editor Drawers provide a compact and user-friendly way to access actions without excessive scrolling.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to Setup > Custom Actions.

Configure the Clone and Delete actions to appear in the Quote Line Editor drawers.

 Validation:

Open the Quote Line Editor and confirm that the actions are accessible without horizontal scrolling.

 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.

 Requirement:

Ensure approval requests are routed to a substitute manager during the original manager's absence.

 Solution:

The Delegated Approver lookup field on the Approver record allows the admin to specify a temporary approver.

Setting the Delegation End field ensures the delegation automatically ends upon the original manager’s return.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Using the Next Approver field for temporary delegation is not the intended functionality.

B: Creating an Approval Rule with start and end dates is overly complex and unnecessary.

D: Replacing the original Approver record risks permanent changes and is not recommended for temporary delegation.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Delegated Approval Settings are documented under Advanced Approvals Configuration Guidelines ​.

 Scenario:

The customer wants to increase the subscription quantity for the last month of the contract. The renewal Opportunity must reflect this change.

 Solution:

Generate an Order from the amendment Opportunity to capture the changes.

Contract the amendment Order to update the Contract.

Refresh the renewal Quote to synchronize the increased quantity.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B: Terminating the contract with a specific end date is unnecessary for this scenario.

C & D: Deleting Renewal Opportunities or Quotes adds unnecessary manual steps and risks data integrity.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

The process for handling amendments and renewals is detailed in Amendments and Renewal Configuration Guidelines ​.

When a user performs a contract renewal and finds that the Price Book on the Renewal Opportunity or Quote is incorrect, the issue often arises due to the absence of a Price Book reference on the original Contract. To address this, the Renewal Pricebook ID field on the Contract must be populated. This field ensures the correct Price Book is carried over during the renewal process.

Step 1: Understand the Renewal Pricebook ID Field

Field Location: The SBQQ__RenewalPricebookId__c field is on the Contract object.

Purpose: It specifies which Price Book Salesforce CPQ should use for renewal quotes and opportunities created from the contract.

Without this field populated, Salesforce CPQ defaults to another Price Book, which can lead to inaccuracieste the Renewal Pricebook ID**

Access the Contract Record:

Navigate to the relevant Contract record in Salesforce.

Edit the Contract:

Populate the Renewal Pricebook ID field with the 18-digit Salesforce ID of the desired Price Book.

This ID corresponds to the Price Book you want Salesforce CPQ to apply during renewals.

Save the Changes:

Ensure the field is correctly updated and the changes are saved .

Step 3: **

Attempt the renewal process again by clicking Renew on the Contract.

Confirm that the Renewal Opportunity and associated Quote now reference the correct Price Book.

Step 4: Consider Automation for Future Accuracy

Automate Field Population:Use Process Builder or a Flow to automatically populate the Renewal Pricebook ID field based on the contract's associated Account or Opportunity. This reduces manual errors and ensures consistency.

Data Validation:Enforce validation rules to prevent contracts from being saved without a valid Renewal Pricebook ID .

By ensuring the Renewal Pricebook ID is coesolve the issue of incorrect Price Books during renewals and prevent similar occurrences in the future.

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.

 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.

 Behavior Explanation:

The Price Rule fails to apply correctly because formula fields used in Price Conditions are not natively supported for the first evaluation cycle.

The system requires additional recalculation to fetch and calculate the correct formula-derived value.

 Root Cause:

Price Rule evaluation relies on static field values at runtime. When formula fields are used, their values may not be immediately available due to dependency on intermediate calculations.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Salesforce documentation discourages the use of formula fields in Price Conditions for real-time calculations and recommends using static fields or Lookup Queries for consistent behavior ​.

 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.

 Scenario Overview:

List Unit Price: Product A's standard price is $150.

Contracted Price: CK has a contracted price of $100 for Product A.

Discretionary Discount: CK negotiated a 10% discretionary discount for this deal.

 Price Calculation:

List Unit Price remains the standard price of $150.

Regular Unit Price applies the contracted price of $100.

Customer Unit Price: After applying the 10% discretionary discount on the contracted price,Customer Unit Price=100−(100×0.1)=90\text{Customer Unit Price} = 100 - (100 \times 0.1) = 90Customer Unit Price=100−(100×0.1)=90.

Net Unit Price matches the Customer Unit Price for the 10 units being purchased, which is $90.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Salesforce CPQ Contracted Price logic ensures negotiated prices override the List Price, and additional discretionary discounts apply as expected ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Control the visibility of fields in the Quote Line Editor.

 Solution:

The Edit Lines Field Set Name special field on the Quote object references the field set used to control which Quote Line fields are visible in the editor.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Field Set on the Quote Line object.

Add or remove fields from the field set referenced in the Edit Lines Field Set Name field.

 Validation:

Test the Quote Line Editor to ensure only the configured fields are visible.

 Scenario Breakdown:

Adventure in a Box:

List Price = $10

Discount = 50%

Net Price = $5 (after 50% discount).

Premium Support:

Percent of Total Base = List Price.

Percent of Total = 10%.

 Calculation of Premium Support:

Percent of Total applies to the Net Price of Adventure in a Box.

Net Total of Premium Support = $5 × 10% = $0.50 per month.

For 12 months: $0.50 × 12 = $12.00.

 Requirement Overview:

Automatically split Orders by delivery location based on Quote Line Groups.

 Key Configurations:

Order by Quote Line Group: Ensures that each Quote Line Group generates a separate Order.

Ordered Field = TRUE: Triggers the creation of Orders for the Quote Lines.

 Steps to Configure:

Ensure the Order by Quote Line Group field is checked on the Quote.

Mark the Ordered field as TRUE.

Test the Order creation process to verify separate Orders are generated by location.

 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:

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:

Render separate Line Item sections for each Product Family and bundle on the output document.

 Solution Steps:

Option B: Create a Line Item section for each Product Family and use the Filter field to display only the relevant products for each section.

Option C: Use a formula field on the Quote Line object to identify the bundle's Name and Number, then set this field in the Group field to group lines within each section.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: The Conditional Print field is not used for rendering specific Product Families in Line Item sections.

D: Sort Order on Product records does not meet the grouping and filtering requirements for the output document.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Document generation and Line Item grouping are detailed in Quote Templates Configuration ​.

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​​.

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

 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 ​.

Understanding the Requirement:

Universal Containers wants sales reps to associate Campaign records with Quote Lines using a lookup field in the Quote Line Editor.

The requirement includes avoiding warning messages when searching for Campaign records.

Salesforce CPQ Lookup Field Behavior:

When a lookup field is added to the Quote Line Editor, Salesforce CPQ searches for records in the target object (e.g., Campaign).

To avoid warnings, the target object (Campaign) must have a specific field set named CPQ_Lookup, which defines the fields displayed in the search results.

Steps to Implement the Solution:

Step 1: Navigate to the Campaign object in Salesforce Setup.

Step 2: Go to the "Field Sets" related list and click "New."

Step 3: Name the field set CPQ_Lookup (case-sensitive).

Step 4: Add the fields you want to display in the lookup search results (e.g., Campaign Name, Start Date, Owner).

Step 5: Save the field set.

Integration with the Quote Line Editor:

The system will now use the fields defined in the CPQ_Lookup field set when sales reps perform a search for Campaign records.

This ensures the lookup field operates without errors or warnings in the Quote Line Editor.

Key Considerations:

Ensure that all required fields for identifying Campaign records are included in the CPQ_Lookup field set.

Test the lookup functionality in the Quote Line Editor to confirm smooth operation.

Validation:

Add a Campaign lookup field to a Quote Line in the Quote Line Editor and test the search functionality. Verify that the fields defined in the CPQ_Lookup field set appear in the search results without warnings.

 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.

 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 ​.

 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.

To display Maintenance and Support products in separate sections, the admin must create Product Features, as features define sections in the CPQ configurator. To control the order (Support above Maintenance), the "Number" field on the Product Feature determines the sequence, with lower values appearing first. Option B correctly specifies two features (Maintenance and Support) and assigns a lower Number to the Support Feature, ensuring it displays above Maintenance. Option A relies on alphabetical ordering, which doesn’t guarantee Support above Maintenance (e.g., "M" precedes "S"). Options C and D use Product Options, which don’t create sections—only features do—and thus fail the separate-sections requirement. Salesforce CPQ documentation confirms feature ordering via the Number field.

 Requirement:

Allow users to generate output documents in Microsoft Word format.

 Solution:

The Allow Output Format Change checkbox in User Settings enables users to select alternative formats like Microsoft Word during document generation.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: The checkbox is user-specific, not template-specific.

C: Creating a second template is unnecessary when users can dynamically change the format.

D: Template Sections do not control output formats.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Configuring user settings for document generation is detailed in CPQ Quote Templates Documentation ​.

 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.

 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.

 Requirement Overview:

Limit users from selecting more than 10 product options within a specific Product Feature.

 Key Mechanism:

The Max Options field on the Feature record limits the maximum number of product options that can be selected for that feature.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Feature Record associated with the Product Bundle.

Set the Max Options field to 10.

Save and test by adding the Product Bundle to a Quote.

 Validation:

When a user attempts to select more than 10 product options within the feature, Salesforce CPQ will prevent further selections and display an appropriate message.

 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.
