Salesforce CPQ-Specialist Based on Real Exam Environment

 Requirement:

Sell a non-renewable support SKU in 1-month increments, with the ability to cancel before the agreed end date.

 Solution:

SubscriptionType = One-Time: Ensures the product is treated as a one-time charge, not renewable.

SubscriptionTerm = Number of Months: Allows the quote to define the length of the support agreement.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A and C: These configurations do not align with the requirement to sell support in defined monthly increments.

D: Marking the product as Renewable contradicts the requirement that the product is non-renewable.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

SubscriptionType and SubscriptionTerm fields are detailed in the Subscription Products configuration guide ​.

Block pricing in Salesforce CPQ is used when a fixed price applies to a quantity range, as in this tiered pricing scenario (e.g., $1,800 for 6-10 licenses). Option A sets the Pricing Method to "Block" on the Product, enabling this model. Option E involves creating Block Pricing records for each tier (e.g., 1-5 = $1,000), defining the fixed prices. Option B (Non Discountable = True) ensures no further discounts apply, meeting the requirement. Option C (Fixed Price) applies a single price regardless of quantity, not tiered pricing. Option D (Slab Discount Schedule) is for percentage-based discounts, not fixed block prices. Salesforce CPQ documentation validates this setup for block pricing.References: Salesforce CPQ Documentation - "Block Pricing" and "Pricing Methods".

 Requirement:

Deploy Price Rules with Lookup Queries that reference a new Rental Rates object.

 Best Practices for Deployment Order:

Step 1: Rental Rates: Deploy the object and data it references first to ensure lookup data is available.

Step 2: Price Rules: Deploy Price Rules to establish the logic governing pricing calculations.

Step 3: Price Conditions: These evaluate criteria for the rules to execute.

Step 4: Lookup Queries: Queries must reference both the object and conditions, so deploy them after both.

Step 5: Price Actions: Set last to ensure that the actions triggered by the rules execute correctly.

 Why Other Options Are Incorrect:

A, B, D: Deploying Lookup Queries or Price Actions before Rental Rates or Price Rules may cause execution errors due to missing references.

 Salesforce CPQ Reference:

Best practices for deploying CPQ Price Rules and Lookup Queries are detailed in Salesforce documentation ​.

 Requirement Overview:

Universal Containers wants to sell monthly subscriptions and round additional days up to the nearest month when calculating prorated prices.
