CPQ-Specialist Salesforce Certified CPQ Specialist (WI25) Questions and Answers

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.References: Salesforce CPQ Documentation - "Tiered Pricing" and "Pricing Methods".

 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 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.

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

 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 ​.

 Scenario:

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

 Solution:

Use a Discount Schedule with:

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

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

 Why Other Options are Incorrect:

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

C: Range type does not handle tiered pricing accurately.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

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

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 ​.

 Scenario Overview:

A Configuration Attribute displays a picklist with more values than the corresponding field on the Quote Line, which is restricted to a predefined set.

 Behavior:

When a user selects a value that is not in the Quote Line field’s restricted picklist, Salesforce CPQ prevents saving and displays an error.

 Validation:

The Quote Line enforces the picklist restriction, ensuring data integrity across the configuration and Quote Line Editor.

 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 .

 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:

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.

 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:

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 ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Sales reps need to redistribute Order Products across multiple Orders.

 Key Considerations:

Ownership Requirement: Only the Order owner or users with elevated permissions (e.g., Modify All) can edit an Order.

Allow Multiple Orders Setting: This setting must be enabled in the CPQ Orders package to allow splitting or redistributing Order Products.

 Steps to Enable:

For Ownership:

Confirm the sales rep is listed as the owner of the Order.

For Package Settings:

Navigate to CPQ Package Settings > Orders.

Enable the "Allow Multiple Orders" checkbox.

 Testing:

Ensure that the Edit Order Products button is exposed on the Order Page Layout and verify redistribution functionality.

 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 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.

 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:

Reduce scrolling in the configurator for a bundle with many Features and Options.

 Solutions:

A. Option Selection Method = Add: Allows users to select options from a pop-up window instead of scrolling through the configurator.

D. Group Features into Tabs: Use the Category field to group Features into tabs for easier navigation.

E. Option Layout = Tabs: Configure the bundle to display Options in a tabular format, reducing scrolling.

 Steps to Configure:

Set the Option Selection Method to Add on relevant Product Features.

Populate the Category field on Product Features to group them into tabs.

Change the Option Layout on the bundle Product to Tabs.

 Validation:

Test the configurator to ensure the layout reduces scrolling and improves usability.

 Requirement:

Use fixed pricing for quantity tiers without additional discounts.

 Solution Steps:

B: Marking the product as Non-Discountable prevents additional discounts.

D: Set the Pricing Method to Block to define fixed prices per quantity tier.

E: Create Block Pricing records to define fixed prices for each quantity tier (e.g., 1-5 licenses = $1,000).

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Fixed Price is not suitable for tiered pricing.

C: Slab Discount Schedules are not used for block pricing.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Tiered and Block Pricing setups are detailed in Pricing Configuration ​.

 Scenario:

Original subscription: $600 Net Unit Price × Quantity 10 × 24 months = $14,400.

Refund: Ten months into the contract, 14 months remain unused.

 Calculation:

Refund amount = ($600 × 10 × 14) ÷ 24 = -$3,500.

Amended subscription refund (Quantity = 0): 14 months refund prorated = -$2,500.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A, C, D: The refund calculations either overstate or understate the prorated refund based on the subscription term and remaining months.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Prorated refunds and subscription amendments are explained in CPQ Subscription Pricing Documentation ​.

 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 .

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 one page 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.References: Salesforce CPQ Documentation - "Product Bundle Configuration" and "Option Layout Options".

 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.

For the Fulfillment team’s requirement, Order Item dates need to reflect the order creation date rather than Quote Line start dates. Option C achieves this by using Process Builder to set the Order Product Date to "Today" upon record creation, overriding any inherited Quote Line dates. For the Account Management team’s requirement, all items from one order must appear on a single contract. Option A accomplishes this by setting the Contracting Method on the Order to "Single Contract," ensuring all order products are grouped under one contract regardless of subscription terms. Option B (Default Order Start Date) is a package-level setting that doesn’t directly apply to individual order items. Option D (Quote Contracting Method) affects quote-to-contract mapping but doesn’t ensure order-based consolidation. Salesforce CPQ documentation supports these configurations for date and contract control.References: Salesforce CPQ Documentation - "Order Management" and "Contracting Methods".

 Considerations for Authorizing Calculation Service:

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

 Solution Steps:

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

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

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

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

 Requirement:

Organize quoted products by project milestones and generate a separate Order for each Quote Line Group.

 Solution:

Use Salesforce automation to set the Order by Quote Line Group field on the Quote. This ensures the system generates separate Orders based on the grouping in the Quote Line Editor.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B: Relying on notes is manual and error-prone, lacking automation for generating separate Orders.

C: Validation Rules prevent specific actions but do not help organize Orders by Quote Line Group.

D: Custom picklist fields are unnecessary when Order by Quote Line Group exists as a standard feature.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

The Order by Quote Line Group feature is outlined in Order Management Configuration ​.

 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.

 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.

 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.

 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.

https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=000382118 &type=1

 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 ​.

 Scenario Overview:

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

 Object Relationships:

During Order and Contract processes:

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

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

 Validation:

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

 Requirement:

A unique license number needs to be stored on the Asset record for each unit of a downloadable product sold.

 Solution:

Setting the Asset Conversion field to One per Unit ensures that an individual Asset record is created for each unit of the product. This allows each Asset to store a unique license number.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A & B: Null or custom values do not enforce one Asset per unit, making it impossible to assign unique license numbers.

D: One per Quote Line creates only one Asset for the entire Quote Line, which is not suitable for unit-level licensing.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

The behavior of Asset Conversion is detailed in CPQ Asset Configuration documentation ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Ensure that the Contract Name field is visible to users when initiating an Amendment.

 Key Configuration:

The Active Contract Lookup Field Set on the Contract object determines which fields appear when selecting a Contract for an Amendment.

 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:

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 Overview:

Migrate new CPQ functionality from a sandbox, ensuring that record relationships are preserved.

 Migration Sequence:

Products: Base level of the bundle.

Options: Product Options depend on the Product.

Attributes: Attributes are referenced by Product Options.

Rules: Product Rules depend on Products, Options, and Attributes.

 Steps to Migrate:

Export and import Products first.

Migrate Options, followed by Attributes, and finally Rules.

 Validation:

Test the migrated functionality to ensure all dependencies and relationships are intact.

 Requirement Overview:

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

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

 Key Mechanism:

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

 Steps to Resolve:

Navigate to the Product Option record for Product A.

Set the Apply Immediately field to True.

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

 Justification:

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

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.

References:

Salesforce CPQ documentation on setting up lookup fields and field sets emphasizes creating a CPQ_Lookup field set to avoid warnings

 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.

 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.

 Issue:

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

 Solution:

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

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

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

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

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

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

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

 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 ​.

 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 ​.

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.References: Salesforce CPQ Documentation - "Product Features" and "Configuring Bundles".

 Requirement Overview:

Ensure the Standard Warranty (a Percent of Total product) generates an Order Product when a partial Order is created.

 Solution:

When generating a partial Order, selecting a Shipping Container product triggers the automatic creation of a Standard Warranty Order Product, as the warranty is based on the container’s Net Price.

 Steps to Test:

Add a Shipping Container Quote Line and the Standard Warranty Quote Line to a Quote.

Create a partial Order, selecting the Shipping Container.

Verify that the Standard Warranty Order Product is generated.

 Requirement:

Allow customers to return asset Products and receive credit.

 Solution:

Setting the Asset Amendment Behavior to Allow Refund enables the product to be reduced in quantity on an Amendment Quote.

Reducing the Quantity on the Amendment Quote triggers a refund process in CPQ.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A: Negative quantities are not a supported standard in Amendment Quotes.

C & D: Asset records should not be manually edited as changes must flow through Quotes and Orders.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Refund handling and Asset Amendment Behavior are described in Amendment and Renewal Processes ​.

 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 ​

 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.

 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 ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers uses multiple currencies (USD, EUR, GBP) and requires specific pricing based on regions (America, Asia Pacific, Europe).

 Solution Details:

Create four Price Books, where each Price Book covers a unique combination of region and currency.

America - USD: Prices for American customers.

Asia Pacific - USD: Prices for Asia Pacific customers.

Europe - EUR: Prices for European customers using EUR.

Europe - GBP: Prices for European customers using GBP.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to Setup > Price Books and create a new Price Book for each combination.

Assign relevant Price Book Entries for the products in each Price Book.

Use sharing rules to restrict access to the appropriate Price Books for users in each region.

 Validation:

Ensure users can access and use the correct Price Book based on their region and currency.

 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:

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.

 Dynamic SKU Generation:

A dynamic SKU is created based on user choices during the configuration process. This requires fields that define patterns and positions for combining components into a single SKU.

 Required Fields:

Component Code Position: Determines the position of each component in the SKU.

Component Code: Represents individual product codes that contribute to the SKU.

Configured Code Pattern: Defines the overall pattern of the dynamically generated SKU.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Dynamic SKU creation is described under Configuration and Product Bundling Guidelines ​.

Scenario Breakdown:

List Price = $100

Quantity = 5

Discount Schedule Type = Slab

Discount Unit = Percent

Slab Discount Mechanism:

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

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

Calculation:

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

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

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

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

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

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

 Requirement Overview:

A 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:

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
