In Revenue Cloud's billing hierarchy, the Order Product level Billing Treatment takes precedence over the Product Level Billing Treatment. According to Revenue Cloud billing documentation, when a Billing Treatment is configured at multiple levels, the system applies a priority hierarchy where the most specific (transactional) level overrides more general levels.

The Billing Treatment field configures whether a charge should be billed in advance (prior to service delivery) or in arrears (after service delivery). When this setting exists at both the Product level and the Order Product level, the Order Product level configuration is the final determining factor. In the given scenario, even though the Product is configured to bill in arrears, the subscription order will actually bill in advance because the Order Product Billing Treatment explicitly specifies advance billing.

This design allows for customer-specific exceptions and flexibility. The Product level provides a default billing behavior, but sales teams and billing administrators can override this default at the Order Product level for specific deals, negotiated terms, or unique customer arrangements. For example, a customer might negotiate different billing terms than the standard product defaults, and those specific terms are captured at the Order Product level during quote-to-order conversion.

Option A is incorrect; Product Level does not override Order Product level. Option C about Legal Entity is unrelated to Billing Treatment resolution hierarchy. The Order Product level is the transaction-specific configuration point where customer-negotiated terms take final effect, making it the highest priority in the billing treatment resolution logic.

“Transaction Types define how Revenue Cloud interprets pricing, eligibility, and discount logic for a specific transaction (Sales, Amendment, Renewal, Cancellation, etc.).”

“Volume-Based Pricing applies tiered or bulk discounts based on quantities but can be conditioned by Transaction Type.”

“For initial sales, use the Sales Transaction Type. For renewals or amendments, different types apply.”

Step-by-Step Reasoning:

Requirement: Apply bulk discounts only for business-to-business (B2B) sales (initial purchases).

Solution:

Configure Volume-Based Pricing rules.

Condition them on Sales Transaction Type (so they apply only during initial sales).

Why B is Correct:

Sales Transaction Type accurately represents new B2B purchases.

Enables separation of pricing logic by channel or buyer type.

Why Others Are Incorrect:

A: Quote Transaction Type is metadata used in CPQ quoting but not for pricing control logic.

C: Order Transaction Type applies post-sale; discounts must be calculated pre-order in pricing.

Salesforce Billing Implementation Guide – “Order Activation” section:“Once an order is activated, it is considered finalized and cannot be modified directly. Activated orders are used to generate invoices, fulfillments, and billing schedules. Any required changes must be made through amendments or new orders.”

Salesforce CPQ Implementation Guide – “Orders and Contracts” section:“After an order is activated, the order lines become read-only. Users can no longer edit the order or its line items. To change product quantities, pricing, or terms, use the amendment or change order process.”

Subscription Management Implementation Guide – “Order Lifecycle Management” section:“Activation transitions an order from a draft or submitted state into a locked state for processing. No direct modifications to order lines are permitted once activated.”

Step-by-Step Reasoning

Understand the scenario:The order has been submitted and permissions were granted, but the team still cannot edit line items.

Key factor:If an order is activated, its records (header and line items) become locked for billing and fulfillment synchronization.

Why option B is correct:Activation locks the order, preventing direct edits. The only way to make changes post-activation is via amendments or change orders, not direct editing.

Why A and C are incorrect:

A (Asseized): Not a Salesforce term related to order lifecycle.

C (Decomposed): Decomposition refers to fulfillment item breakdown, not a locking mechanism preventing edits.

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.

Exact Extracts from Salesforce Subscription Management Implementation Guide:

“A Standard Amendment is used to modify existing subscriptions or assets within the active contract term. This includes changes to price-impacting attributes, terms, or product options.”

“Cancel/Replace is used for full contract replacements, whereas Early Renewal creates a new term before expiration.”

“When a customer wants to change price-impacting attributes only (e.g., service level, configuration), a Standard Amendment provides the flexibility to update without replacing or renewing.”

Step-by-Step Reasoning:

Requirement: Change price-impacting attributes only within an active subscription.

Appropriate Process: Standard Amendment, as it modifies the existing subscription line(s).

Why B is Correct:

Designed for mid-term modifications including price-affecting changes.

Why Others Are Incorrect:

A (Cancel/Replace): Too disruptive; used for structural changes (product replacements).

C (Early Renewal): Starts a new contract; not relevant for in-term attribute updates.

“A Term Selling Model defines a fixed duration for a product or service, such as 12 months, and specifies how the customer is billed—monthly, quarterly, or annually.”

“Evergreen Selling Models are used for ongoing, indefinite subscriptions without a predefined end date.”

“To convert a one-time purchase into an installment plan over a fixed period, use a Term-based Selling Model with the appropriate billing frequency.”

Step-by-Step Reasoning:

Current State: Product is a one-time purchase.

Required Outcome: Convert to 12 equal monthly payments — this is a fixed duration (12 months) with monthly billing frequency.

Correct Setup: Assign Term Monthly selling model, defining the duration as 12 months with monthly charge intervals.

Why Others Are Incorrect:

B (Term Annual): Uses annual billing, not monthly.

C (Evergreen Monthly): Represents an open-ended subscription, not a fixed 12-month term.

Salesforce Revenue Cloud introduces the Product Selling Model and Product Selling Model Option framework to help companies offer multiple purchase or subscription options for the same base product, reducing catalog sprawl. This approach is ideal for businesses that previously created multiple product records (e.g., separate SKUs for lease vs. buy) just to accommodate different pricing or selling logic.

With selling models, you define whether a product is sold as a one-time purchase, subscription (e.g., monthly, annual), lease, or usage-based. You can then attach multiple Selling Model Options to a single product, each reflecting a specific commercial approach (e.g., Lease Monthly, Term Annual, One-Time).

This allows the business to maintain a streamlined catalog while supporting diverse sales motions.

Option B refers to the decomposition process and is more relevant for fulfillment than pricing.

Option C (Multiple Price Books) enables regional or segmented pricing but doesn't solve the core problem of catalog sprawl due to multiple sales models.

Exact Extracts from Salesforce Revenue Cloud Documents:

Subscription Management Implementation Guide – “Product Selling Models”:“Selling Models reduce catalog complexity by allowing a single product to support multiple commercial options such as one-time, lease, or subscription.”

CPQ Implementation Guide – “Product Configuration Best Practices”:“Use selling model options to attach different billing or pricing terms to a single product record rather than duplicating products.”

Exact Extracts from Salesforce Subscription Management Implementation Guide:

“The Renew Assets flow controls the behavior and UI elements displayed during the renewal process initiated from the Managed Assets view.”

“Administrators can modify the Renew Assets screen flow to remove or adjust user options, such as overriding renewal term or early renewal.”

“The Amend, Renew, and Cancel Assets flow is used when multiple asset management actions are combined, not for direct renewal-only cases.”

Step-by-Step Reasoning:

Requirement: Prevent users from overriding the renewal term in Managed Assets → Renew process.

Flow in Use: The Renew Assets screen flow controls this experience.

Solution: Modify the Renew Assets flow → remove or hide the “Renewal Term” input element or variable that supports overrides.

Why C is Correct:

Directly targets the correct renewal flow invoked from the Managed Assets page.

Why Others Are Incorrect:

A: Modifying the LWC is not required — Salesforce recommends modifying the underlying flow.

B: “Amend, Renew, and Cancel Assets” combines multiple asset management actions, not the standard renewal-only process.
