Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

CPQ B2B Commerce Connector is a tool that synchronizes data from CPQ product and pricing objects to B2B Commerce objects1.

CPQ uses discount schedules and B2B Commerce uses tiered pricing to handle volume-based pricing23.

The connector does not support mapping tiered pricing to discount schedules out of the box23.

The connector uses pricing from B2B Commerce to define the pricing on the generated quote lines by setting their Special Price fields4.

Incorporating new requirements, such as tiered pricing and mapping to discount schedules in CPQ, into an ongoing Salesforce CPQ and B2B Commerce project requires careful consideration of project scope, timelines, and resource availability. Adding the new requirement as a user story to the product backlog allows for a structured approach to evaluating its impact on the project. Scheduling a subsequent meeting for prioritization and grooming ensures that stakeholders can discuss the new requirement in detail, assess its feasibility, and decide on its inclusion in the project timeline. This approach aligns with agile project management best practices, allowing for flexibility in responding to new requirements while maintaining project focus and efficiency.

I'm not sure about rushing to include it in the current sprint. Maybe we should prioritize and groom the request first before making a decision.

I agree with Donette. It seems like a feasible requirement and can be easily implemented since the CPQ B2B Commerce Connector is already set up.

Haha, this reminds me of that time I had to explain to my boss why we couldn't just 'quickly add' a feature to the production system. Stakeholders always think it's easy, don't they?

I agree with Dean. Introducing a new requirement mid-sprint could disrupt the team's momentum. Better to plan it properly for the next sprint.

I think we should go with option B and accommodate the new request in the same sprint.

Option B looks like the way to go. The requirement is feasible and the connector is already set up, so it should be easy to implement.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. If this requires changes to the CPQ B2B Commerce Connector, it might be better to add it as a new user story and prioritize it for the next sprint.
