Question #: 26
Topic #: 9

Universal Containers uses an ERP as system of record (SOR) for its product data, and Sales Cloud and Revenue Cloud for its sales dat

a. TheProduct data must be synced with Salesforce so that sales representatives can add the products to their Opportunities and Quotes. As Products are deactivated within the ERP, they should no longer be available. Since Sales Cloud is the SOR for Opportunities and Revenue Cloud is the SOR for Quotes, the Solution Architect has been asked to come up with an archiving strategy that preserves Opportunity and Quote data related to these deactivated products m Salesforce for historical reference.

What should a Solution Architect recommend to manage the deactivation of the Products and archiving of the Saks data?

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

BRemove the Product from active Opportunities and Quotes. Archive the Opportunity and Quote data in a third-parry system and bring back into Salesforce as External Objects.

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

DDeactivate the Product in Salesforce once it is deactivated m the ERP. Mark the Opportunity and Quote data in Salesforce as inactive so they do not show up in reporting.

Show Suggested Answer

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.

C) Deactivate the Product m Salesforce once it is deactivated m the ERP. Archive the Opportunity and Quote data in a third-party system and bring back into Salesforce as External Objects. I'm not a fan of External Objects, but it's better than deleting everything.

B) Remove the Product from active Opportunities and Quotes. Archive the Opportunity and Quote data in a third-party system and bring back into Salesforce as External Objects. Straightforward, but what if we need to reference the old data?
