Free Practice Questions for Salesforce CPQ-Specialist Exam

 Issue:

Prices are hidden on the Configure Products page due to restricted field visibility.

 Solution:

Adjust the Field-Level Security settings for the Unit Price field on the Product Option object to ensure visibility.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

B: The Option Configuration Field Set affects configuration but does not control visibility.

C & D: Default Pricing Table and Price Editable settings do not impact visibility on the Configure Products page.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Managing field visibility is outlined in CPQ Field-Level Security documentation ​.

 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:

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 ​.

 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:

Product A must always be included in the bundle.

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

 Key Configurations:

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

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

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Product Option record for Product B.

Set Required to FALSE.

Set Selected to TRUE.

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

 Validation:

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

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

 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:

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:

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 ​.

 Scenario Overview:

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

 Use Case:

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

 Implementation:

Navigate to the Price Rule.

Set Condition Met to Custom.

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

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