Salesforce Administrator — Question 38

Universal Containers has decided to offer a partner its products at a discounted rate applied to all opportunities.
What should the Administrator do to make sure the appropriate prices are applied to products on opportunities for this partner?

Answer options

• A. Create a custom object for the discounted products.
• B. Create a new discount Record Type on the Products object.
• C. Create a new list price on the Standard Price Book.
• D. Create a custom Price Book with the discounted list prices.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because creating a custom Price Book allows the Administrator to specify discounted list prices specifically for the partner. Option A is incorrect because a custom object does not manage pricing directly. Option B does not solve the problem as a Record Type does not apply discounts automatically. Option C is not applicable since using the Standard Price Book would not reflect the custom discounts needed for this partner.
