Universal Containers (UC) is about to embark on a digital transformation initiative to make all of its back-office systems data visible to employees, customers. And partners via front-office capabilities like Salesforce. The CIO has asked the team to identify their various systems, both back- and front-office, and correctly identify the proper use of those systems. The team plans to utilise the Systems of Engagement framework to classify their systems based on how they will be utilized within the enterprise architecture.
Salesforce is being utilued as the master for all sales data-like Opportunities, Quotes, and Cart data---and an ERP is the master for all invoice, order, and payment data.
How should the Solution Architect segment opportunities and order data in Salesforce*
In Universal Containers' architecture, Salesforce serves as the System of Record (SOR) for sales data such as Opportunities and Quotes, centralizing sales activities and data management. Orders, once confirmed, transition to the ERP system, where they are processed and fulfilled, making the ERP the SOR for order, invoice, and payment data. This delineation ensures clear data ownership and process efficiency, with Salesforce facilitating customer engagement and sales processes, and the ERP managing financial transactions and fulfillment, in line with best practices for leveraging Salesforce in a multi-system environment.
Universal Containers (UC) has expanded rapidly in recent yean following a number of acquisitions. The new CMO wants to use all Leads from one of the acquired Salesforce orgs to luck-start a new targeted campaign in uC's mam Salesforce org. The acquired company would like to keep its Lead data because it enriches the Lead before it comes into Salesforce via third-party marketing tool and supports its direct sales channel. Beyond the Lead use case, both Salesforce orgs will remain completely independent from one another.
Which integration approach should a Solution Architect recommend between the UC mam org (the target org) and the acquired org (the source org)?
Option D would involve discussing a strategy between the source organd target org Sales teams on the criteria of Leads to migrate from the source org to the target org, and migrating Leads to the target org after they are enriched in the source org. This would allow both Salesforce orgs to remain independent from each other, while also enabling UC to use all Leads from one of the acquired Salesforce orgs for its new targeted campaign. This would also preserve the value of Lead enrichment that happens in the source org via third-party marketing tool.

A client is running a project with a 626 multi-cloud setup involving Marketing Cloud, Sales Cloud, ServiceCloud, Experience Cloud, and MuleSoft. Currently, MuleSoft is primarily used to integrate with third-party systems. Marketing Cloud is connected to Sales/Service using the standard connector. A recent requirement-gathering session, involving all functional streams, brought up the question of where consolidated reporting mil happen. So far, reporting has only been looked at individually per stream.
There is a steering committee meeting 1 week from now. The Solution Architect was asked to provide different solutions to fix the problem. The expectation is that a high-level evaluation will be done prior the steering committee meeting so that an indication of options can be given and additional funding can be requested.

For a multi-cloud setup involving various Salesforce clouds and MuleSoft, understanding the current data architecture and the need behind consolidated reporting is crucial. Reviewing established and planned data flows provides insight into the existing data landscape, identifying systems of record and current data integrations. Identifying the key drivers and high-level data scope for consolidated reporting helps in aligning reporting solutions with business needs. Drafting a high-level solution using CRM Analytics (formerly known as Einstein Analytics) showcases the potential for unified reporting across multiple Salesforce clouds, leveraging its powerful data integration, transformation, and visualization capabilities. This approach aligns with Salesforce's best practices for data management and analytics, providing a foundation for informed decision-making in the steering committee meeting.
Universal Containers is in the process of implementing a CPQ and B2B Commerce solution. The Technology team hascompleted the development for the current sprint and is demonstrating the functionalities to the business stakeholders during their sprint demo. While demonstrating products and pricing, and Sync between B2B and CPQ when requesting a quote, the stakeholders make a new request to include tiered pricing and map it to discount schedules on CPQ.
Which approach should a Solution Architect recommend while addressing the feedback from the stakeholders?
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.
