 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.

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​​.

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers wants to use split Orders to manage fulfillment by separating items based on their shipping schedules.

 Key Considerations:

Component-type Options: When splitting Orders, component-type Options are treated independently and can be split into different Orders.

Bundle Structure: Splitting Orders does not maintain the bundle structure, meaning the parent-child relationships of the bundle are not preserved in the split Orders.

 Steps to Configure:

Ensure that the Order by Quote Line Group field or a custom grouping field is used to facilitate splitting the Orders based on shipment schedules.

 Validation:

Test the split Order functionality by creating a Quote with a hardware bundle and ensuring that the bundle and components can be split appropriately.

In Salesforce CPQ, when search filters are configured with predefined values and visible to sales reps, their interaction with the filter is determined by the filter’s configuration and available operators. The behavior described here is tied to Search Filters in the Product Selection screen, which allow users to refine the list of displayed products based on specific criteria.

Search Filter Configuration:

Predefined Filter Value: Here, the filter is set with a value ("Green").

Operator: The operator “starts with” limits the search to product codes beginning with the text "Green."

Sales Rep Interaction with the Filter:

The visibility of the search filter enables sales reps to view and interact with the criteria during product selection.

Specifically, sales reps have the ability to delete the predefined text to ignore the filter and retrieve a broader or unrestricted product list.

Documentation Alignment:According to Salesforce CPQ guidelines (as referenced in the Salesforce CPQ package settings and user behaviors), if filters are not marked as "required," users can remove or modify the filter values dynamically. This is designed to offer flexibility during quoting while maintaining filter defaults for ease of use.

The interaction described above aligns with Salesforce CPQ's behavior regarding visible search filters, emphasizing that sales reps can clear the filter text unless restricted by additional customization.

Use Case Reference:

When a sales rep begins a quote and searches for products, the filter defaults to "Green."

If the rep does not want to limit the product search to codes starting with "Green," they can simply remove the text and refresh the results.

Relevant Salesforce CPQ References:

 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:

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 ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers wants the Shipping Plus product to appear at the top of the Product Selection list.

 Key Configuration:

The Sort Order field determines the sequence of Products in Product Selection.

Products with lower numerical Sort Order values appear at the top.

 Steps to Configure:

Navigate to the Product Record for Shipping Plus.

Set the Sort Order field to the lowest available value (e.g., 1).

Save and test the configuration in the Product Selection screen.

 Validation:

Ensure that Shipping Plus appears at the top of the Product Selection list.

To manage a subset of eco-friendly products for opportunities flagged as eco-friendly while allowing flexibility to include all bundles, follow these steps:

Step 1: Create a Filter Product Rule

Filter Product Rules help define dynamic filtering of products displayed during the quoting process.

Navigate to Product Rules

Go to Salesforce Setup → Product Rules and click New.

Set the Type to Filter and define a clear Name such as "Eco-Friendly Product Filter."

Configure the Filter Logic

Define the conditions to identify eco-friendly and bundle products.

Use the Conditions related list to target the relevant product fields (e.g., a custom checkbox for eco-friendly products and a type field for bundles).

Example condition:

Field = Eco-Friendly Checkbox

Operator = Equals

Value = True

Step 2: Set up the Product Action

Product Actions define what the rule does when triggered.

Add a Product Action

In the Product Rule, go to the Product Actions related list and click New.

Set the Type to Optional Filter. This allows the system to apply the filter by default but enables users to remove the filter and see all bundles.

Link to Add Products Button

Make sure this action links to the Add Products custom action.

Step 3: Ensure Opportunity Integration

The Opportunity flagged as eco-friendly must drive this behavior.

Custom Field Dependency

Ensure the Opportunity has a field (e.g., Eco-Friendly Checkbox) that can be referenced in the Filter Product Rule or through a related custom formula on the Quote.

Dynamic Behavior

When the Opportunity is flagged, the filter is applied dynamically, displaying only eco-friendly and bundle products in the Add Products dialog.

Step 4: Test and Validate

Test the behavior by flagging different Opportunities as eco-friendly and verifying the Add Products functionality:

Eco-Friendly flag → Default to eco-friendly products and bundles.

No flag → All products, including non-eco-friendly bundles, are shown.

Additional Considerations:

Search Filter IntegrationThe Search Filter can complement this approach by providing additional options for users to refine their selections further​​.

User TrainingTrain sales reps on how to toggle the filter manually if needed.

This setup allows Universal Containers to meet its business objectives while maintaining flexibility for its sales team​.

 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.
