D. It is important to ensure the Price Rules run for Quotes initiated via 628 Commerce Storefront to maintain consistency in business rules being applied.





A.
  for supporting kits in the B2B Commerce Storefront, they need to create equivalent bundle products on the CPQ side.

C.
  On the CPQ 826 Commerce Connector, the default mapping of tiered pricing in 826 Commerce is to Discount Schedules in CPQ.

Explanation: The CPQ B2B Commerce Cloud Connector is an unmanaged package from Salesforce Labs that allows B2B Commerce and CPQcustomers to configure or customize functionality12. It syncs products, pricing, quote requests, and orders in both clouds12.
For supporting kits in the B2B Commerce Storefront, they need to create equivalent bundle products on the CPQ side3. A kit is a product that contains other products as components3. A bundle is a product that has one or more options that can be added or removed by a user4. The connector maps kits to bundles using a custom field called Kit ID on both objects3.
On the CPQ 826 Commerce Connector, the default mapping of tieredpricing in 826 Commerce is to DiscountSchedules in CPQ5. Tiered pricing lets you set different prices for different quantities of aproduct5. Discount schedules let you apply discounts based on quantity or amount ranges for a product. The connector maps tiered prices to discount schedules using a custom field called Tiered Price ID on both objects5.

Universal Containers (UC) is implementing a SalesforceB2B multi-cloud project with large volumes of data and daily transactions from multiple third-party systems via multiple integrations. UC is looking at transactions of more than 1 million records a week and, in higher seasons, 10 million records a week. UC has made the decision to get a full copy sandbox to use to test all of its third-party integrations across its multiple clouds. UC has also invested in MuleSoft and the Anypoint Platform as the single enterprise service bus for all of the third-party data going into Salesforce.
Which type of performance testing should a Solution Architect recommend for testing data at scale on this project?


A. Perform API load test against the full copy sandbox before go live.


B. Perform unit testing against the full copysandbox codebase before go live in production.


C. Perform page load testing against production after go live.


D. Perform API load test against thepartial copy sandbox before go live.





A.
  Perform API load test against the full copy sandbox before go live.

Explanation: There are different types of performance testing, such as load testing, stress testing, endurance testing, and spike testing. Each type has a different purpose and goal. the best type ofperformance testing is API load test against the full copy sandbox before go live. This type of test can help you evaluate how well your integrations handle high volumes of data and transactions from multiple sources. It can also help you validate the functionality and performance of your MuleSoft Anypoint Platform.
To perform an API load test, you need to create a test plan thatdefines the test scenarios, test data, test tools, and test metrics. You also need to submit a request for performance testing toSalesforce2 and follow their guidelines and best practices.
A full copy sandbox is a good environment for API load test because it has the same data and metadata as your production org3. This can help you simulate realistic conditions and avoid data skew issues.

Northern Trail Outfitters (WO) istransforming its service experience. NTO has created a RACI matrix to understand the key stakeholders' responsibilities for activities and decisions during a Salesforce FieldService discovery workshop.

C. Business Analyst


D. Field Service Agent


E. Project Manager





B.
  NTO employee representing a typical customer

C.
  Business Analyst

E.
  Project Manager

Explanation: A RACI matrix is a tool that defines the roles and responsibilities of different stakeholders in a project or process1.
The RACI matrix has four categories: Responsible,Accountable, Consulted, and Informed12. Responsible means that the stakeholder is directly involved in performing a task or making a decision12.
Accountable means that the stakeholder has ultimate authority and accountability for a task or decision12.
Consulted means that the stakeholder provides input or feedback on a task or decision12. Informed means that the stakeholder is kept updated on the progress or outcome of a task or decision12.

Towards the end of the discovery phase, the sales manager and subject matter experts raise a request to gethands-on experience with the solution as soon as possible. They want to ensure the requirements they provided are correctly built out in Salesforce. The project sponsor is unsure how that request may affect the schedule.
Which method should a Solution Architect consider in this scenario to validate the requirements during the build sprint without impacting the project timelines?


A. Ensurethe project sponsor reviews and signs off on the Functional Specification Document as an acknowledgment that what was built aligns with the original requirements.


B. Run a User Acceptance Testing discovery session, based on the Functional Specification Document, to ensure the testing script meets the end users' needs.


C. Give every end user the Functional Specification Document as their training materials and test them on the contents.


D. Give the end users access to a sandbox environment and a testing script for each of the user stories. Ask UAT testers to perform their tasks and collect feedback from them in the testing script.





D.
  Give the end users access to a sandbox environment and a testing script for each of the user stories. Ask UAT testers to perform their tasks and collect feedback from them in the testing script.

Explanation: user acceptance testing (UAT) is a stage in the software development cycle designed to test if the solution supports the business and user needs in a real-world scenario. UAT involves end users or domain experts who follow a series of test steps to verify if specific requirements perform as expected.
Give the end users access to a sandbox environment and a testing script for each of the user stories. Ask UAT testers to perform their tasks and collect feedback from them in the testing script. This method would allow the end users to get hands-on experience with the solution as soon as possible and provide feedback on any issues or gaps they encounter. This would also ensure that what was built aligns with the original requirements and meets their expectations13.

Northern Trail Outfitters (NTO) currently use Sales Cloud to track deals and now wants to use channel sales to distribute and tell products through resellers (partners). As part of the channel strategy. NTO will be implementing a Partner Community for resellers to register deals or generate quotes.
