Suggested Answer: D

Deactivating products in Salesforce aligns with the ERP's status, maintaining data integrity without losing historical data. Marking related Opportunity and Quote data as inactive preserves historical records for reference without affecting active reporting, ensuring compliance with data retention policies and supporting accurate data analysis and decision-making.

Ha! Deactivating the product and marking the Opportunity and Quote data as inactive? That's like throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Option C is clearly the winner here.

I disagree. I believe we should deactivate the Product in Salesforce and archive the Opportunity and Quote data in a third-party system.

I think we should delete the Product in Salesforce once it is deactivated in the ERP.

C) Deactivate the Product in Salesforce once it is deactivated in the ERP. Archive the Opportunity and Quote data in a third-party system and bring back into Salesforce as External Objects.
