Salesforce Sales-Admn-202 Salesforce Certified CPQ Administrator Exam Practice Test

 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:

Limit the Product Options displayed in a bundle based on the service level selected by the user via a Configuration Attribute.

 Solution Details:

Selection Price Rule: Use a Selection Price Rule to dynamically show or hide Product Options based on the selected value of the Configuration Attribute.

Apply Immediately: Ensures that changes based on the service level selection occur in real-time during configuration.

 Steps to Configure:

Create the Selection Price Rule:

Define the Price Rule with a Condition targeting the Configuration Attribute value.

Use a Price Action to show or hide Product Options.

Set Apply Immediately:

Navigate to the Configuration Attribute.

Set Apply Immediately to TRUE.

 Validation:

Test the bundle configuration by changing the service level and verifying the Product Options displayed dynamically update.

 Data Import Order for Quote Templates:

Salesforce CPQ requires Quote Template data to be imported in a structured order to ensure that relationships between objects are correctly established.

Quote Template: Base structure for the quote document.

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 .

 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 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​​.

 Requirement:

Migrate existing contracts to a new Product version upon renewal.

 Solution:

Update the Renewal Product field to specify the new version of the Product.

Enable the Renewal Forecast checkbox on the Contract to ensure renewal Quotes reference the new Product version.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B: Changing the Product Lookup on the Subscription directly bypasses standard renewal processes.

C: Selection Product Rules enforce configurations during quoting but are not suitable for renewals.

D: Price Rules do not modify Product references during renewal Quotes.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Renewal product management is outlined in the CPQ Subscription and Renewal Guidelines ​.

 Issue Context:

Lookup Price Rules rely on the SBQQ__LookupObject__c field to reference the target object (e.g., Rental Rates).

If this API name is inaccurate or incorrectly input, the rule will fail to retrieve the desired value.

 Review Steps:

Go to the Price Rule record.

Check the SBQQ__LookupObject__c field. Confirm the API Name of the Rental Rates object is accurate.

Example: Ensure the API name matches exactly (e.g., Rental_Rates__c).

 Additional Checks:

Verify the Lookup Queries. Ensure the filter conditions correctly target a valid record on the referenced object.

 Salesforce Documentation Reference:This behavior follows Salesforce CPQ's guidelines on Lookup Price Rules configuration​​.

 Requirement:

Allow users to choose options and define quantities during bundle configuration.

 Configuration Types:

None (A): Users can freely choose options and set quantities.

Allowed (C): Users can choose options and optionally set quantities.

Required (E): Users must configure the options and define quantities.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B: Configurable is not a valid value for the Configuration Type field.

D: Disabled prevents any configuration, which contradicts the requirement.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Configuration Types are documented under Bundle Configuration Guidelines ​.

Business Requirement Context:

Universal Containers needs the ability to split Orders by the Start Dates of the Quote Lines.

Each Order generated will correspond to a unique Start Date.

Key Salesforce CPQ Features:

Order By Field: This field on the Quote allows CPQ specialists to specify the criteria for splitting orders. By selecting the SBQQ__StartDate__c field, orders will be created based on the Start Dates of Quote Lines.

Ordered Checkbox: Setting this to True ensures that the Quote Lines are converted into Orders during the ordering process.

Step-by-Step Configuration:

Navigate to the Quote in Salesforce CPQ.

Locate the Order By picklist field and set its value to SBQQ__StartDate__c. This ensures Quote Lines are grouped by their Start Dates for Order generation.

Check the Ordered checkbox on the Quote to mark it ready for Order generation.

Expected Outcome:

When the Orders are generated, CPQ will create separate Order records for each unique Start Date present in the Quote Lines.

Validation and Testing:

Create a Quote with multiple Quote Lines having different Start Dates.

Process the Quote through the Ordering process to verify separate Orders are created for each Start Date.

 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.

 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​​.

Requirement:

Implement a price change for Product A when its quantity exceeds 10.

Solution:

Price Conditions:

Verify that the product is Product A.

Check that the quantity of Product A exceeds 10 using a Summary Variable.

Price Action:

Inject the value $50 into the Unit Price field for Product A.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B, C, D: These options involve unnecessary actions, such as injecting values into the Quantity field, which is unrelated to the requirement.

Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Configuring Price Rules with Conditions and Actions for specific scenarios ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Ensure the Renewal Quote is accurate and includes all renewable products from the original Contract.

 Solution:

C. Renewal Quoted Checkbox:

Select the Renewal Quoted checkbox on the Contract to generate Renewal Quotes automatically.

D. Renew Contracts Button:

Use the Renew Contracts button from the Account’s Contract Related List to create Renewal Quotes directly.

 Steps to Configure:

Ensure the Contract is active and associated with the correct Account.

Use either the Renewal Quoted checkbox or the Renew Contracts button to generate Renewal Quotes.

 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.

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 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.

 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:

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 ​.

Requirement:

Prevent users from reconfiguring a bundle after its initial configuration.

Solution:

Set Configuration Type to Allowed to permit configuration during initial setup.

Set Configuration Event to Add to allow configuration only when the product is added, blocking reconfiguration later.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Disabled blocks all configuration, including initial setup.

B: Configuration Event = Always allows continuous reconfiguration.

D: Reconfigure Line Custom Action is unrelated to this requirement.

Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Configuration Type and Event settings are documented in Bundle Configuration ​.

 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 ​.

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.

 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:

Localize Quote Terms into three selectable languages for the quote PDF output.

Solution Steps:

Step A: Create a picklist field (e.g., Output Language) on the Quote object with language codes (e.g., EN, FR, DE) as values.

Step B: Create Localization records for each Quote Term in all three languages, ensuring the Quote PDF reflects the selected language.

Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

C: "Allow Output in Different Languages" is not an actual managed package setting.

D: Setting the Language field alone does not dynamically manage multiple languages for PDF generation.

Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Localization of Quote Terms is covered in CPQ Multi-Language Configuration Guidelines ​.

 Smart Approvals Overview:

Salesforce CPQ's Smart Approvals streamline the approval process by re-evaluating previously approved records to avoid redundant approvals.

 Rejected Quotes Resubmission:

If a quote is rejected, and the user resubmits it without exceeding previously approved values, it bypasses the full approval chain and is sent directly to the person who rejected it.

This functionality minimizes unnecessary delays and ensures efficient quote handling.

 Documentation Alignment:

Smart Approvals Configuration and behavior as outlined in CPQ guidelines ensure approval efficiency ​.

 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 ​.

 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.

 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.

 Scenario:

Product A has no Subscription Pricing, while Product B uses Percent of Total with a shared category.

During renewal, Product A has a Net Total of zero.

 Reason:

When the Renewal Model is set to Asset-Based, only assets tied to the Contract are included in the renewal.

Since Product A has no Subscription Pricing, it is not treated as a subscription and thus has a Net Total of zero.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B: Product A is not pre-owned in this scenario.

C: The Include Net-New Products in Maintenance setting applies to maintenance scenarios, not standard renewals.

D: Asset Conversion determines asset behavior, not renewal totals.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Renewal behaviors with Asset-Based Models are covered in CPQ Renewal Settings Documentation ​.

To set a dynamic default value for a Configuration Attribute when the configuration page loads, automation must populate the associated Product Option field automatically. Option A uses a Flow to update the Product Option field tied to the Configuration Attribute, triggered upon record creation (e.g., when the Quote Line is initiated), ensuring the value is set dynamically at page load. Option B (Price Rule) requires manual user action ("Apply Rules"), which doesn’t meet the "moment the page loads" requirement. Option C (Quote formula field) isn’t directly supported as a default source for Configuration Attributes without additional customization. Option D (Quote Line field with Price Rule) lacks real-time dynamism and alignment with page load timing. Salesforce CPQ documentation highlights Flows as a robust solution for dynamic defaults.

 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.

 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:

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.

 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:

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 Overview:

Display the sum of a custom field in the standard Line Editor table without replacing the subtotal or total fields.

 Solution Details:

The Summary Fields field set on the Quote Line object controls which fields appear as totals in the Line Editor.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to Setup > Object Manager > Quote Line.

Locate the Summary Fields Field Set.

Add the custom field to the field set.

 Validation:

Open the Quote Line Editor and confirm that the sum of the custom field appears in the standard table, alongside other totals.

 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:

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:

Calculate the pricing steps for a subscription product with a 24-month term.

 Calculation Details:

Regular Unit Price:

Default Subscription Term = 12 months.

Adjusted for 24 months: $120 × 24 / 12 = $216.00.

Customer Unit Price:

Apply 10% Volume Discount: $216.00 × (1 − 0.10) = $194.40.

Apply 20% Additional Discount: $194.40 × (1 − 0.20) = $172.80.

Net Unit Price:

Apply 5% Partner Discount: $172.80 × (1 − 0.05) = $164.16.

 Validation:

Verify each step in the Salesforce CPQ price waterfall to ensure accuracy.

 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 ​.

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.

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​​.

 Potential Causes:

Component Checkbox: Products marked as Components are typically excluded from being directly selectable in the Product Selection screen unless part of a bundle .

Search Filter: Custom Search Filters on the Add Products button limit the display of products based on criteria such as product attributes or field values.

 Excluded Reasons:

Hidden Checkbox: This is generally used to hide products from the Quote Line Editor, not the Product Selection screen.

Custom Action Condition: While these can limit the Add Products button's visibility, they do not directly affect individual product visibility.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference Points:

Documentation on Product Selection Behavior and Search Filters confirms these behaviors ​.

 Requirement:

Ensure that quotes are recalculated with current information prior to approval without reopening the Quote Line Editor.

 Solution:

Option A: Adding or modifying a field in the Calculating Fields Field Set automatically triggers recalculation for quotes.

Option C: Including the Calculate button on the quote layout provides users with a manual option to trigger recalculation before approval.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B and D: These require additional customization (e.g., creating a custom Lightning button or Flow) and are not standard CPQ features.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

The Calculating Fields Field Set and Calculate Button functionalities are well-documented as standard CPQ tools ​.

 Requirement:

Calculate the prorate multiplier when a subscription product’s End Date differs from the Quote’s End Date.

 Solution:

CPQ uses the Quote Line date (specific to the subscription product) to calculate the prorate multiplier. This ensures alignment with the subscription term.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A & D: Earliest or latest dates do not determine prorate multipliers.

B: The Quote date applies to the Quote as a whole, not individual subscription products.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Prorate multiplier calculations are outlined in Subscription Management Guidelines ​.

The order of precedence for evaluating subscription dates is as follows

(1) Quote Line,

(2) Quote Line Group, and

(3) Quote

 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.

 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:

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.

 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 ​.

 Scenario Breakdown:

The original subscription starts with 100 licenses.

After the first year, the count decreases to 80 licenses.

After the second year, the count increases to 120 licenses.

 Quantity Adjustments:

Original Subscription: The initial agreement is for 100 licenses over 36 months.

First Amendment: Reduces the quantity to 80 licenses for the remaining term after the first year.

Second Amendment: Increases the quantity to 120 licenses after the second year.

 Validation:

Salesforce CPQ keeps track of subscription adjustments through the Contract object.

Amendments reflect updated quantities while preserving the history of original and amended subscriptions.

 Subscription Term and List Price:

Subscription Product A has a Subscription Term of 6 months with a List Price of $100.

When added to a Quote with a Term of 12 months, the List Price is prorated to account for the longer term.

 Proration and Ranged Discount Schedule:

A Ranged Discount Schedule applies discounts based on quantity, volume, or term thresholds.

For the 12-month term, the price is prorated to $200 (2 times the List Price for 6 months).

The Discount Schedule applies a 25% discount to the prorated price, reducing it to $150.

 Regular Price Calculation:

The Regular Price reflects the discounted value after applying the Discount Schedule:Regular Price=200×(1−0.25)=150×0.5=75\text{Regular Price} = 200 \times (1 - 0.25) = 150 \times 0.5 = 75Regular Price=200×(1−0.25)=150×0.5=75.

 Key Salesforce CPQ Reference Points:

Ranged Discount Schedules modify the List Price based on configured thresholds .

Subscription Pricing Logic ensures correct proration for products with terms different from the Quote Term .

 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:

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 ​.

 Issue Analysis:

Products not syncing to Opportunity Products is usually caused by specific CPQ conditions or rules.

 Reasons for Failure:

B: Products with an Effective Quantity of zero are excluded from syncing.

C: Validation Rules on the Opportunity Product object may silently block the sync process if they are not met.

D: Products with a price of zero do not sync by default.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Missing Price Book Entries prevent quoting entirely, not syncing issues.

E: The Exclude from Opportunity checkbox applies to the Product Option, not the syncing process.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

CPQ guidelines for syncing Quote Lines to Opportunity 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 ​.

 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.

 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:

Streamline the Quote Line Editor by enabling automatic calculations after each change.

 Solution:

Enabling the Calculate Immediately setting in Managed Package Settings ensures calculations are triggered automatically whenever changes are made in the Quote Line Editor.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: The Legacy Calculator setting is outdated and not related to automatic calculations.

B: Quick Calculate is a manual process that does not meet the requirement for automatic recalculation.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

The Calculate Immediately Setting is described in the CPQ Managed Package Settings documentation ​.
