Salesforce Certified CPQ Specialist — Question 39

The Universal Containers Admin is creating a custom formula field, Approval Score, on the Quote Line object to calculate approval score. This field will calculate the average approval score for the Quote to determine how many levels of approval the record should go through when submitted.
The Admin planned to use a roll-up summary field on the Quote to average the Quote Line Approval Score field. The Admin received an error when attempting to create the field. The Quote object has too many roll-up summary fields.
In addition to creating a custom number field on the Quote object to capture the average Approval Score, which CPQ functionality should the Admin use to resolve the issue?

Answer options

• A. Create a Workflow Rule with a Field Update to populate the average Approval Score.
• B. Create a trigger to populate the average Approval Score.
• C. Create a Summary Variable and Price Rule to populate the number field with the average Approval Score.
• D. Create a Summary Variable and Product Rule to populate the number field with the average Approval Score.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because using a Summary Variable and a Price Rule allows the Admin to calculate and set the average Approval Score in a way that complies with CPQ capabilities. Options A and B are not suitable as they do not leverage the CPQ functionalities required for this scenario, and option D is incorrect because a Product Rule is not the appropriate tool for populating an average score in this context.
