 Salesforce Revenue Cloud’s CPQ (Configure, Price, Quote) solution allows for the creation of price rules that can be used to performcalculations on quote lines. In this scenario, the CPQ admin has created three separate price rules, each using a summary variable to add the net total for quote lines belonging to a particular product family. While this solution works, it may not be the most optimal from a performance standpoint.

Option D suggests using a single price rule with three price actions. This would be more efficient because it reduces the number of price rules that need to be evaluated. Each price rule evaluation can consume system resources and potentially slow down the quote calculation process. By consolidating the three price rules into a single one withmultiple actions, the system only needs to evaluate one rule, which can improve performance.

It’s important to note that summary variables in Salesforce CPQ allow you to perform a math function on the collected values of a number field on the quote line, product option, subscription, or asset1. You can also create filters so that the summary variableevaluates only fields on records that match the filter values1. This functionality would still be available with a single price rule with multiple actions.

INVEST is an acronym that stands for Independent, Negotiable, Valuable,Estimable, Small, and Testable12. It is a set of criteria used to assess the quality of a user story in Agile methodologies12. Here’s what each term means:

Independent: The user story should be self-contained, in a way that there is no inherent dependency on another user story12.

Negotiable: User stories, up until they are part of an iteration, can always be changed and rewritten12.

Valuable: A user story must deliver value to the end user12.

Estimable: You must always be able to estimate the size ofa user story12.

Small: User stories should not be so big as to become impossible to plan/task/prioritize with a certain level of certainty12.

Testable: The user story or its related description must provide the necessary information to make test development possible12. References: 12

RASIC is an acronym used in project management to define the roles and responsibilities of each person who interacts with the project. Each letter represents a designated role in a task’s completion:

R (Responsible): This is the task lead – the individual who is ultimately responsible for getting the job done. There should only be one person responsible.

A (Accountable): This is theperson, or people, who will approve or deny the task once it’s complete. The person responsible can also play this role, but it can also be a technical expert or stakeholder.

S (Supporting): The individual(s) in this role actively work on the task and helpthe person responsible.

I (Informed): The individual(s) in this role need to be informed of the task’s progress and any decisions being made. These are the people who need to know when the task is complete.

C (Consulted): People in this role offer adviceor guidance but do not actively work on the task. These are often subject matter experts who offer guidance or one-time technical reviews1.

Salesforce Revenue Cloud, part of the Salesforce Customer 360 Platform, unites Configure, Price, and Quote (CPQ), Billing, Partner Relationship Management, and B2B Commerce functionality1. It aims to help businesses better manage their revenue streams, enhance forecasting capabilities, improve efficiencies, and accelerate growth across all sales channels1.

In the context of the user story, the company wants toreward loyal customers by including previously purchased quantities in pricing calculations on the quote. This can be achieved by using discount schedules with cross orders checked2.

Discount schedules in Salesforce Revenue Cloud allow businesses to implement dynamic pricingstrategies with rules that trigger changes when specified products are on a quote2. By checking cross orders,the system can consider the quantities of a product that a customer has purchased across multiple orders when applying bulk discounts2. This way, the more a customer purchases over time, the greater the discounts they can receive, thereby rewarding their loyalty2.

Understanding Salesforce Revenue Cloud

These are three documents that canhelp a revenue cloud consultant gain a better understanding of the client’s business model, value proposition, pricing strategy, and approval process before engaging in a scoping session.

A sample proposal the client provides to their customers: This document can help the consultant understand how the client presents their products and services to their customers, what kind of information they include, how they structure their pricing and discounts, and what terms and conditions they apply. This can help the consultant design a solution that meets the client’s needs and expectations, as well as aligns with their branding and messaging. 1

Brochures that provided detail to theproducts and services the client offers: This document can help the consultant understand the features and benefits of the client’s products and services, how they differentiate themselves from their competitors, and what kind of value they deliver to their customers. This can help the consultant configure the product catalog, pricing rules, and quote templates that reflect the client’s offerings and value proposition. 2

An approval matrix documentation that describe the approvals needed before a quote is sent to the customer: This document can help the consultant understand the client’s internal governance and compliance requirements, as well as the roles and responsibilitiesof the stakeholders involved in the quote-to-cash process. This can help the consultant set up the approval workflows, notifications, and permissions that ensure the accuracy and validity of the quotes and contracts. 3

 To implement the user story of rewarding loyal customers with bulk discounts based on previously purchased quantities, the design of the solution should include the following components:

Contracts, Subscriptions and Assets should be populated with historical data. This is necessary to track the customer’s purchase history and determine the appropriate discount tier for each product or service. Contracts, Subscriptions and Assets are the core objects of Revenue Cloud that store the information about the customer’s agreements, recurring charges, and entitlements. By migrating the historical data from the legacy system to these objects, the customer can leverage the Revenue Cloud features such as renewal management, usage-based pricing, and revenue recognition. 123

Discount schedules with Cross Orders checked. This is the feature that enables the bulk discounts based on previously purchased quantities. A discount schedule is a set of discount tiers that apply to a product or a product option based on the quantity or amount ordered. By checking the Cross Orders option, the discount schedule will consider the quantities from all the orders associated with the same account, contract, or subscription. This way, the customer can reward their loyal customers with lower prices for higher volumes. 45
