Complete Industries-CPQ-Developer Salesforce Materials

In Salesforce Industries CPQ, specifically within the Vlocity framework, product images can indeed be managed either by URLs pointing to online images or through files uploaded to the Salesforce Documents. This flexibility allows users to easily manage and update product images in a manner that best suits their operational setup, enabling more dynamic and visually engaging product catalogs.

The Tightest Match calculation method in Salesforce Industries CPQ considers multiple conditions and applies the following rules:

• AND rule conditions: The weights of all met conditions are summed together. This aggregation is used to determine the overall applicability and strength of the rule when all specified conditions are met.
• OR rule conditions: The highest weighted value among the met conditions is selected. This approach is used when any of the specified conditions suffice for the rule to apply, prioritizing the condition with the greatest significance as indicated by its weight.

This method ensures that the rule application is both comprehensive and precise, appropriately reflecting the importance and impact of different conditions in complex decision-making scenarios.

The time policy for a promotion specifies when promotional pricing applies to the customer account. This determines the periods during which the terms of the promotion are effective, impacting the cost of products or services for the customer if purchased within that specific time frame.

• When promotional pricing applies to the customer account (A): The time policy helps manage the availability and applicability of promotional pricing, ensuring that promotions are only active during their intended timeframe, which is crucial for accurate billing and promotional management.

The logic to call and execute rules in Vlocity CPQ is encapsulated within the "implementation" of those rules. The implementation refers to the underlying mechanisms—often code or configured logic—that determine when and how rules are triggered and executed. This setup allows rules to be contextually activated based on specific conditions met during transactions, ensuring that rule logic is applied only when relevant, thus maintaining efficiency and effectiveness in rule execution.
