The affectivity date for a product's price list entry in Salesforce Industries CPQ controls whether the product displays in the Products list of the cart. This date defines the period during which a specific price list entry is valid. If the current date falls within the affectivity date range, the product and its associated pricing are considered active and will display in the cart's product list. This helps manage the availability of products for sale based on temporal pricing strategies or promotional periods.

To ensure that the most recent price updates are reflected in the Digital Commerce API response, the developer should run the "Populate API Cache job." This job is crucial because it refreshes the cached API data, including prices, ensuring that any updates to product prices are accurately reflected when the API is queried next. The Populate API Cache job replaces the outdated cache with new, updated information from the database.

In Vlocity (Salesforce Industries CPQ), the "Rule Fail Level" setting is an option that can be configured within a Rule Set. This setting determines the severity of the response when a rule evaluation fails. Placing this setting within the Rule Set allows administrators to manage how rule failures impact the overall processing of rules in the context of the product configuration or pricing scenarios. This level helps in managing how errors are handled and propagated in the rule evaluation flow, ensuring that the system can gracefully handle different types of rule failures according to business needs.
