When using Product Catalog Management in Salesforce Revenue Cloud, visibility of products during quote creation (especially through Product Discovery) is controlled by the Context Definition. Contexts allow administrators to define when and for whom products are visible during the product selection process, based on criteria like sales channels, quote type, or other business rules.

If products are not appearing during quote preparation, it is often due to a missing or misconfigured context definition. Assigning the correct Context Definition in Product Discovery Settings ensures that products and bundles are available during quoting based on business logic.

Option A (selecting a selling model) affects how the product is priced and billed, but not its visibility.

Option B (pricing procedure) impacts price calculations, not product discovery or visibility.

Exact Extracts from Salesforce Revenue Cloud Documents:

CPQ Implementation Guide – “Product Discovery Configuration”:“Ensure that context definitions are properly set so that products appear under the right conditions during quoting. Missing contexts will result in products not being visible to end users.”

Revenue Cloud Product Catalog Guide – “Using Context for Product Availability”:“Context Definitions act as filters for product discovery. Without proper context mapping, products may not show up for selection.”

Revenue Cloud’s document generation (DocGen) capabilities for Revenue Lifecycle Management leverage Microsoft Word as the template and clause authoring environment via an add-in. Salesforce provides a dedicated permission set for users who need to actually design and edit templates in Microsoft Word.

The documentation for DocGen and template design describes a permission set similar to:

Microsoft 365 Word Designer

Assign this permission set to users who design and edit document templates using the Microsoft 365 Word add-in for Revenue Lifecycle Management. This permission set enables access to the Word-based template designer experience.

The DocGen Designer permission set allows the user to manage document packages, configurations, and related document-generation assets within Salesforce. The Clause Designer User permission set allows management and usage of clauses, including organizing and inserting them into templates. However, to open Microsoft Word and actually build/edit the Master Subscription Agreement (MSA) document template with clauses, the consultant must also have Microsoft 365 Word Designer.

Why the other options are incorrect:

Option A – OmniStudio AdminThis permission set is related to OmniStudio tools (FlexCards, OmniScripts, etc.), which are not required to build Word-based DocGen templates. It’s not referenced as a requirement in the Revenue Cloud / RLM DocGen template design flow.

Option B – Obligation AssigneeObligation-related permission sets are used to manage obligations and related tasks (for example, tracking contractual obligations, assignments, or approvals). They are not required just to design or edit a document template with clauses. The documentation clearly separates obligation management from template design.

Therefore, the correct additional permission set required to start building the MSA template with clauses in Word is Microsoft 365 Word Designer (Option C).

When renewing expired assets in Salesforce Subscription Management, the recommended starting point is the Managed Assets Component on the Account or Contract record. From this interface, sales users can override the Renewal Term and initiate the renewal flow for expired or expiring assets.

This ensures that the system automatically references existing asset data, applies renewal pricing logic, and creates the appropriate Renewal Quote and subsequent order.

Manually updating Asset State Periods or Asset Actions (option B) violates lifecycle integrity and is not supported. Similarly, manually adding assets to a quote (option C) disconnects them from the asset management lifecycle, resulting in data inconsistency.

Exact Extract from Salesforce Subscription Management Guide:

“To renew expired assets, initiate the renewal from the Managed Assets Component. Override the renewal term if necessary to regenerate a renewal quote.”

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

The persona described needs to:

Design/manage products in Product Catalog Management → Product Catalog Management Designer.

Use Browse Catalog / Product Discovery → Product Discovery User.

Test bundle configurations in the configurator → Product Configurator.

Option B includes exactly these three. Option A misses Product Discovery User; Option C adds Advanced Configurator Designer (not required for simple runtime testing).

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

In Salesforce Revenue Lifecycle Management / Revenue Cloud, assets are not directly related to contracts with a simple lookup. Instead, Salesforce uses a junction object called Asset Contract Relationship to connect Assets and Contracts. When an order is activated and creates assets, the platform can automatically create these junction records if the appropriate setting is enabled.

In Revenue Settings, there is an option similar to:

Automatically create Asset Contract Relationship

When enabled, Revenue Lifecycle Management automatically creates Asset Contract Relationship records between assets and contracts when orders are activated and related contracts exist.

If this toggle is not active, the order can still create Asset records, and the Contract can still be created or updated, but no Asset Contract Relationship records are created automatically. As a result, when the sales rep opens the contract and looks at its related lists, they don’t see any assets, because the system never created the relationship records that link the assets to that contract.

Why the other options are incorrect:

Option B (manual creation required)Salesforce Revenue Cloud is explicitly designed to handle this relationship automatically when the setting is enabled. The documentation describes the process as system-driven configuration using the “Automatically create Asset Contract Relationship” setting, not something a sales rep normally creates manually. Manual creation might be technically possible, but it is not required if the feature is configured correctly.

Option C (missing ‘Revenue Lifecycle Management record’ on the Contract)A standard Contract in Revenue Cloud / Revenue Lifecycle Management is the main business record itself. There isn’t a separate “Revenue Lifecycle Management record” that must be attached in order for Asset Contract Relationship records to be created. The behavior is governed by the Revenue Settings toggle, not by an additional record type or link as described in this option.

Because the contract is not showing the assets after order activation, the most accurate cause—per the documented behavior in the Revenue Lifecycle / Asset-Contract relationship setup—is that the automatic creation of Asset Contract Relationship records is not enabled, which is exactly what Option A states.

Exact Extracts from Salesforce Subscription Management and CPQ Implementation Guides:

“The InitiateRenewal invocable action enables users or flows to create a renewal quote or renewal order based on existing active assets or contracts.”

“Admins can expose this flow action through a screen flow and add it as a quick action on Account, Contract, or Asset record pages for one-click renewal initiation.”

“This declarative approach eliminates the need for custom triggers or processes.”

Step-by-Step Reasoning:

Requirement: Allow sales reps to trigger renewals directly from a record page with minimal clicks.

Correct Solution: Use InitiateRenewal invocable action within a screen flow.

Deployment: Add the flow as a Quick Action on the Account or Contract Lightning page.

Why B is Correct: It uses native Revenue Cloud functionality for renewals, no code required.

Why Others Are Incorrect:

A: Apex trigger is custom and bypasses standard renewal processes.

C: Checkbox + Process Builder is outdated and not integrated with Renewal APIs.

Explanation (150–250 words)

Core requirement: Move active CPQ subscriptions into Revenue Cloud’s asset-centric model so downstream processes (amendments, renewals, billing) work natively.

Key factors:

In Revenue Cloud (Subscription Management), Assets are the system of record for what the customer owns/is entitled to.

Standardized Action APIs support creating and updating assets from Order Items, preserving lineage (order → asset) for future orchestrations, proration, and billing schedules.

“Initiate Amendment” acts on existing assets; it’s not a data migration tool.

“Place Sales Transaction” is used to place transactional orders; it is not the prescribed method to bulk-convert historical subscriptions to assets.

Comprehensive solution:

Stage existing subscriptions as Order Items that reflect the current state (product, term dates, quantities, prices).

Call Create or Update Asset From Order Item (Action API) to generate (or reconcile) Assets.

Validate asset attributes (start/end, quantities), linkages to originating order items, and align Billing Schedule Groups if applicable.

The standard way to identify whether an Asset is managed by Salesforce Revenue Cloud's Lifecycle Management engine is by using the HasLifecycleManagement field. This out-of-the-box field is a Boolean value on the Asset object that indicates whether the asset is tied to Revenue Lifecycle-managed records (e.g., originating from CPQ+ or Subscription Management flows).

This field enables reporting, filtering, and business logic to segment Revenue Cloud-managed assets from assets generated through custom or legacy systems like CK’s app. It is the most appropriate solution in this scenario as it requires no customization and is supported natively by Salesforce.

Option B suggests creating a custom field, which is unnecessary since the platform already provides a system field for this purpose.

Option C (Asset Action Source) refers to tracing asset actions to originating events, but it is not suitable for broad classification of asset origin or management type.

Exact Extracts from Salesforce Revenue Cloud Documents:

Subscription Management Implementation Guide – “Asset Data Model”:“The HasLifecycleManagement field flags whether an asset is lifecycle-managed by Revenue Cloud. This is useful in environments where assets come from multiple systems.”

Revenue Cloud Data Dictionary – “Asset Object”:“Use HasLifecycleManagement to distinguish system-managed assets from externally generated or legacy assets.”

In Salesforce Revenue Cloud's Subscription Management and Order Fulfillment framework, Decomposition Scope determines how fulfillment requests are grouped during the decomposition process. If the goal is to group multiple commercial products (and their technical/fulfillment counterparts) from different bundles within the same order into a single shipment, the appropriate scope is "Order".

Using Order-level Decomposition Scope ensures that all applicable products within the same order are processed as a single unit for fulfillment, which is ideal when shipping coordination is needed across bundles or product lines. This avoids generating multiple shipments for each product or bundle, thereby streamlining logistics and enhancing customer experience.

Option C (Bundle) would result in decomposition happening separately per bundle, leading to multiple fulfillment requests — contrary to the requirement.

Option A (Account) is too broad and may introduce unrelated products into the same fulfillment group, which is not desirable.

Exact Extracts from Salesforce Revenue Cloud Documents:

Subscription Management Implementation Guide – “Decomposition Scope Settings”:“The decomposition scope determines the grouping of products for fulfillment. Setting the scope to 'Order' allows all decomposable products in an order to be grouped into a single fulfillment request.”

Order Management Configuration Guide – “Controlling Decomposition and Fulfillment”:“Use ‘Order’ as the decomposition scope to consolidate fulfillment for all products in the same order, even if they are from different bundles.”

“Attributes inherited from a product class can be customized at the product level.”

“Setting the ‘Is Price Impacting’ flag at the product level determines whether that attribute participates in attribute-based pricing calculations for that specific product.”

“The flag on the product class attribute only defines the default behavior, but pricing relevance is determined at the product level.”

Step-by-Step Reasoning:

Requirement: Two attributes (from product class) must affect price for this product only.

Best Practice: Override the inherited attributes at the product level and set Is Price Impacting = True.

Why C is Correct: Ensures attribute-based pricing applies only to this product without affecting others in the class.

Why Others Are Incorrect:

A: Setting the flag at the classification level affects all products in that class.

B: Attribute Definition is global metadata; it cannot specify product-specific pricing impact.
