 A sales agreement is a long-term agreement between a buyer and a seller to negotiate price and volume of products. To create a sales agreement in Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud, you need to have an account object that represents the buyer. The account object stores the information about the customer, such as name, address, contact, industry, and so on. You can also associate a contact object with the account to specify the person who is responsible for the sales agreement. Other objects that are related to the sales agreement are sales agreement product, sales agreement product schedule, sales agreement line item, and sales agreement forecast. References: SalesAgreement | Manufacturing Cloud Developer Guide | Salesforce Developers, Sales Agreements and Forecasting in Manufacturing Cloud | Salesforce Module, Convert Opportunity to Sales Agreements in Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud

 These three user types can be selected to receive credit for an order in the Tableau CRM configuration wizard when calculating actuals against account manager targets. The configuration wizard guides users through the creation of an app from the Analytics for Manufacturing template and allows them to customize the data and settings for the app. One of the settings is to choose who gets credit for the orders, which determines how the actual revenue is attributed to the account managers. The user can select one of the following options:

Account Owner: This option credits all orders to the account owner’s actual revenue, regardless of who owns the order. This is useful when the account owner is responsible for the overall relationship and revenue of the account.

Order Owner: This option credits all orders to the order owner’s actual revenue, regardless of who owns the account. This is useful when the order owner is responsible for the individual order and revenue of the order.

Other User: This option credits all orders to a custom user’s actual revenue, based on a custom lookup field for a user on the account. This is useful when there is a different user, such as a sales engineer or a partner, who is responsible for the order and revenue of the order.

 You can recalculate payouts for closed periods in two situations: when the member benefits change due to changed requirements, or when the member submits transactions after the payout period is closed, or there is an error in the payout calculation. In both cases, you need to modify the payout records and run the rebate flow again to recalculate the payouts. The first method is to recalculate payouts due to changed benefits, which means that the benefit structure and terms have changed after the payout was calculated for a period. The second method is to recalculate payouts with no charge in benefits, which means that the benefit structure and terms have not changed, but the transactions or the payout calculation have changed. References: Recalculate Payouts for Closed Periods, Rebate Management

To ensure key account managers can generate forecasts using list views for account forecasts, it's crucial that either "All users can see this list view" or "Share list view with groups of users" is selected for the list views. This setting allows for the appropriate visibility and access required for generating accurate and comprehensive forecasts. This is essential for maintaining the integrity and effectiveness of the forecasting process within Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud .

The Service Console for Manufacturing app is a prebuilt app that provides a unified console for customer service representatives (CSRs) to view and manage information related to contacts and accounts, such as Cases, Assets, Warranties, and Claims1.

The app also provides features such as a timeline of interactions, contextual alerts, relevant actions, and knowledge articles to help CSRs resolve customer issues and provide proactive service1.

The app is designed specifically for the manufacturing industry and integrates with other Manufacturing Cloud features such as Sales Agreements and Account Forecasting2.

The other options are incorrect because they do not provide the same level of functionality and integration as the Service Console for Manufacturing app. Option A would only customize the layout of the Case object, but not the other related objects. Option B would enable the generic Service Console app, which does not have the manufacturing-specific components and data sources.

 To upload sales agreement data into the system, the administrator needs to follow these steps in order:

Insert Sales Agreements: This creates the sales agreement records with the basic information such as account, contact, start date, end date, and status.

Insert Sales Agreement Products: This adds the products that are part of the sales agreement, along with the planned quantity and revenue for each product.

Insert Sales Agreement Product Schedule: This specifies the schedule for each product, such as the frequency, start date, end date, and quantity for each period.

The other options are not correct because they involve updating the sales agreement data instead of inserting it. Updating the data requires the data to be already present in the system, which is not the case for a new implementation. Also, updating the sales agreement product schedule is not necessary if the schedule is inserted correctly in the first place. References: SalesAgreement | Manufacturing Cloud Developer Guide, SalesAgreementProduct | Manufacturing Cloud Developer Guide, SalesAgreementProductSchedule | Manufacturing Cloud Developer Guide, Import Data into Manufacturing Cloud

To address the issue of the Claims page not showing when the warranty for the asset ends, the consultant should recommend registering the asset by creating the Asset record and the Asset Warranty Terms record. This ensures that all relevant warranty information, including the end date, is captured and displayed as part of the claims processing workflow, thus providing warranty claim adjudicators with the complete data needed for effective claims management.

Upon the installation of the Analytics app, the default dashboards on the Account page include "Accounts agreement performance" and "Forecast analytics for the selected account." These dashboards provide a comprehensive overview of an account's performance in terms of sales agreements and forecast accuracy, allowing for in-depth analysis and strategic planning based on historical and current data.

 According to the Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud documentation1, the Account Forecast Adjustments (AFA) and Account Forecast (AF) objects do not support triggers. These objects are used to store the manual adjustments and the rolling forecast records of a particular account, respectively. The other two objects, Account Product Period Forecast (APPF) and Account Product Forecast (APF), do support triggers. These objects are used to store the quantity and revenue information of a product in a particular time period and the cumulative values for a product across all periods, respectively. References: Manufacturing Cloud Standard Objects

To ensure data consistency following the migration of sales agreements, the administrator should verify the migration file and compare randomly selected lines with the legacy system. This method allows for a focused and manageable approach to validating the accuracy of the migrated data, ensuring that no data was lost or incorrectly migrated during the process. It's a practical approach that balances thoroughness with efficiency, particularly when dealing with large datasets.

According to the Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud documentation, to apply a rebate program to more than one account, you need to add each account to the members related list on the rebate program. This way, you can enroll multiple accounts as members of the same rebate program and track their transactions and payouts. You can add one account at a time, or use an existing Accounts list view to enroll multiple members. You can also enroll an account in multiple rebate programs if needed1. References: 1: Enroll Members to a Rebate Program

 The error “System.CalloutException: Unauthorized endpoint” indicates that the external endpoint is not whitelisted in Salesforce. To allow Apex callouts to access an external endpoint, the administrator or the developer must register the URL in Remote Site Settings. This is a security feature that prevents unauthorized access to external resources from Apex code. Creating a connected app for the external system or ensuring that the integration user has the necessary permissions to perform the callout are not sufficient to fix this error, as they do not address the issue of whitelisting the endpoint12. References: Apex Developer Guide: Making HTTP Callouts, Apex Developer Guide: Remote Site Settings

To establish clarity between new business and run-rate business, Universal Containers should adopt a differentiated approach where new businesses use Opportunities and Collaborative Forecasting, while run-rate business utilizes Sales Agreements and Account-Based Forecasting. This strategy leverages the strengths of Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud's forecasting and agreement features to align with the distinct nature of new and run-rate business, ensuring accurate forecasting and effective management of business operations.

The Account Manager Target object represents a target created by an account manager for a fiscal year, measure, and target value1. To measure the account managers on a CSAT target, the admin should add a picklist value on the Measure field with Label = CSAT and add Measure Type = Other, on the Account Manager Target object. This way, the account managers can create and assign targets for the CSAT measure to their direct reports2. The other options are incorrect because they either use the wrong object, field, or value for the CSAT target. References: Create and Assign Targets, Set Up and Configure Account Manager Targets, Discuss Salesforce Manufacturing-Cloud-Professional Exam Topic 1 Question 19, Manufacturing Cloud Developer Guide

Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud can be integrated with Oracle ERP orders data using two options:

Use an AppExchange ISV solution: This option allows you to leverage existing solutions from independent software vendors (ISVs) that are available on the Salesforce AppExchange platform. These solutions are designed to simplify and automate the integration process between Salesforce and Oracle ERP systems. Some examples of AppExchange ISV solutions are rSTAR, DBSync, and Jitterbit.

Use API integration with custom logic: This option allows you to use the Salesforce APIs and the Oracle ERP APIs to create custom logic for integrating the orders data between the two systems. You can use any programming language or tool that supports REST or SOAP web services to build the integration logic. You can also use the MuleSoft Accelerator for Manufacturing, which is a prebuilt integration solution that connects Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud with Oracle ERP Cloud1.

n: A sales agreement is a contract between a manufacturer and a customer that specifies the terms and conditions of a long-term sales relationship. A sales agreement consists of a sales agreement record and one or more sales agreement products. A sales agreement product is a line item that represents a product or a product category that the customer agrees to purchase over a period of time. A sales agreement product schedule is a subcomponent of a sales agreement product that defines the quantity and revenue expectations for each time period within the sales agreement term. To load data into sales agreements, you must follow the correct data load sequence to ensure data integrity and avoid errors. The data load sequence is as follows:

First, load the sales agreement records, which contain the basic information about the sales agreement, such as name, account, start date, end date, status, and so on.

Second, load the sales agreement products, which are related to the sales agreement records by the Sales Agreement ID field. Each sales agreement product must have a valid product or product category, name, initial planned quantity, and price book entry.

Third, load the sales agreement product schedules, which are related to the sales agreement products by the Sales Agreement Product ID field. Each sales agreement product schedule must have a valid period, quantity, and revenue. References: Sales Agreement, Sales Agreement Product, Sales Agreement Product Schedule, Data Load Sequence for Manufacturing Cloud

The purpose of a detailed technical design document when implementing Manufacturing Cloud is to define specific details regarding how functionalities will be configured. This includes setting up features like the Actionable Relationship Center, Events and Milestones, and Intelligent Document Reader, some of which may require integration with external systems .

For further details and best practices, refer to the official Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud documentation:

Manufacturing Cloud Overview

The Analytics for Manufacturing app is a prebuilt app that provides dashboards and insights for manufacturing account managers. The app has three modules: Sales Agreements, Account Based Forecasts, and Account Manager Targets. Each module has its own dataflow, template, and dashboard. The administrator can choose any combination of modules based on the business need and data availability. For example, if the administrator only wants to analyze sales agreements and account forecasts, they can select only those two modules and exclude the account manager targets module. The app creation process will only include the dataflows and templates for the selected modules. The administrator can also add or remove modules later by editing the app1. References: Create and Share an App from the Analytics for Manufacturing Template

It is important to understand the landscape of the business before going into the details of requirements because it helps the consultant to ensure there’s an understanding of the big picture and where the real opportunity lies between teams agnostic of Manufacturing Cloud. By analyzing the current state of the business, the consultant can identify the pain points, challenges, goals, and opportunities of the organization and its stakeholders. The consultant can also map out the value chain, the customer journey, the key processes, and the systems and data involved in the business operations. This will help the consultant to align the requirements with the business objectives and priorities, and to design a solution that delivers value and impact across the organization. Understanding the business landscape also enables the consultant to communicate effectively with the client and to establish trust and credibility. References:

To delete a sales agreement, the user must have the Delete Sales Agreements permission, which is included in the Manufacturing Sales Agreement Manager permission set. This permission allows the user to delete an active, approved, canceled, or expired sales agreement, as long as it does not have any active orders associated with it. Giving the user the Delete Sales Agreements profile or the Remove Sales Agreement permission will not enable them to delete sales agreements, as these are not valid options in Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud. References: Delete a Sales Agreement, Assign the Manufacturing Permission Sets to Users.

Manufacturing Cloud is a solution that enables manufacturers to align their sales and operations teams, improve account-based forecasting, and drive business outcomes. One of the main challenges that Manufacturing Cloud addresses is the volatility of the manufacturing industry, which makes it difficult to plan and execute production and distribution efficiently. By gaining visibility into the entire value chain, manufacturers can improve their forecast accuracy, collaborate with their stakeholders, and respond to changing customer needs and market conditions. References: What Is Manufacturing Cloud?, Inside Salesforce’s New Trends in Manufacturing Report

 Account Manager Targets is a feature of Manufacturing Cloud that allows you to set up and manage sales goals and track performance for your account managers and their teams. To use this feature, you need to enable it in Setup and define some settings that affect how targets are created, assigned, and distributed. The three options that can be defined by an admin in the Setup area in Account Manager Targets are:

Target Measure Type: This is the unit of measurement for the targets, such as revenue, volume, or any custom measure. You can define up to three target measure types for your org and assign them to different target types. For example, you can have a target type for revenue and another one for volume, and use different target measure types for each one.

Team Member Hierarchy: This is the hierarchy that determines how targets are rolled up from individual account managers to their managers and so on. You can use the standard User Role hierarchy or a custom hierarchy based on a custom object. The hierarchy affects how targets are distributed, aggregated, and reported.

Distribution Frequency: This is the frequency at which targets are distributed from parent targets to child targets. You can choose from monthly, quarterly, or yearly distribution. The distribution frequency affects how targets are calculated and displayed for different time periods.

References: Account Manager Targets in Manufacturing Cloud | Salesforce Trailhead Module, Enable Account Manager Targets - Salesforce, Define Account Forecast Settings Unit | Salesforce Trailhead Module

Account forecasts are long-term projections of revenue and volume for accounts based on sales agreements, opportunity products, and account manager targets. Account forecasts can be generated and displayed monthly or quarterly, depending on the business needs. The forecast frequency can be changed in the account forecast settings by an administrator. However, changing the forecast frequency has some consequences that the administrator needs to be aware of. First, a full regeneration of all the eligible account forecasts will be carried out, meaning that all the existing account forecasts will be recalculated based on the new frequency. This may take some time and consume system resources. Second, all the previously active account forecasts will expire, meaning that they will no longer be available for viewing or editing. This is to avoid confusion and inconsistency in the forecast data. Therefore, the administrator should carefully consider the impact of changing the forecast frequency and communicate the change to the account managers and other stakeholders. References: Define Account Forecast Settings, Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud Flashcards, Configure Forecast Generation and Display Settings

According to the Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud documentation, you can use the Formula Builder on the Account Forecasting page in Setup to create formulas for forecast calculations. You can define your own formulas for quantity and revenue based on sales agreements, orders, opportunities, and account metrics. You can create either a single formula for all periods, or multiple formulas for different period ranges. If the forecast display period is 12 months, you can create up to 12 formulas. However, if you want to calculate an account based forecast for the next 13 months, you need to create separate formulas for periods 1-12 and period 13, because the Formula Builder does not support more than 12 periods in a single formula. This way, you can ensure that the forecast calculations are accurate and consistent for each month. References: Build Formulas to Calculate Forecast, Configure Forecast Metrics and Formulas

Program Rebate Type Benefit is a Rebate Management object that supports custom fields for rebate program(s) analysis. It is used to define the benefit tiers for a rebate type, such as the percentage or amount of rebate that is paid out based on the achievement of a certain threshold. Program Rebate Type Benefit can have custom fields that specify the criteria by which the benefits vary, such as product category, region, or industry segment. These custom fields can be used in the Analytics for manufacturing app in Tableau CRM for Manufacturing to create dashboards and reports that show the performance and impact of rebate programs. References: Rebate Management Standard Objects - Salesforce Developers, Deploy and Use Rebate Analytics - Salesforce, Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud Flashcards

A System Integration Testing (SIT) environment is used as an environment to perform system-to-system testing. This means that the SIT environment is used to test the integration of different systems or components that are part of the Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud solution. The SIT environment allows the verification of the functionality, performance, and reliability of the integrated systems, as well as the identification and resolution of any defects or issues that may arise during the integration process. The SIT environment is typically a replica of the production environment, but with a smaller data set and lower security requirements. The SIT environment is also used to validate the data migration and synchronization between the source and target systems, as well as the compatibility and interoperability of the APIs and web services that are used for the integration. References:

 A consultant should use an external object to access account order information from an ERP system. An external object is similar to a custom object, but the record data is stored outside the Salesforce organization. By using external objects, the consultant can access the order data in real time via web service callouts, without replicating the data in Salesforce. This way, the sales teams can view the current state of the order information related to an account, without wasting storage and resources keeping data in sync1. A standard Order object or a custom object would require copying the order data from the ERP system to the Salesforce organization, which is not the desired solution for UC. References: 1: External Objects2

A sales agreement is a record that captures the terms and conditions of a long-term or run-rate business relationship between a manufacturer and a customer. It can include products, product categories, prices, volumes, schedules, and other details. A sales agreement can have a maximum of 1500 products or product categories and 72 schedules. Contact Salesforce support if you want to increase the limits. Note that having a large number of product or product categories and schedules can affect system performance1. References: Considerations for Working with Manufacturing

The detailed technical design document is a document that describes the technical specifications and architecture of a solution. It is based on the functional and nonfunctional requirements that are captured in the business requirement document1. Therefore, the detailed technical design document should be completed after the business requirement document has been generated, and before the development and testing phases of the project. This ensures that the technical design aligns with the business needs and expectations, and provides a clear roadmap for the implementation team2. References: 1: Get Started with the Technical Project Documentation3, 2: Documentation and Implementation Diagrams1

A consultant should prepare a template with the requirements and their associated priority, and work with the client to evaluate each item. This is the best way to advance to the next step of the project, because it helps the consultant and the client to align on the scope, objectives, and expectations of the project. It also allows the consultant to understand the client’s business needs, challenges, and opportunities, and to prioritize the requirements based on their value and feasibility. By working collaboratively with the client, the consultant can also build trust and rapport, and ensure that the client is engaged and satisfied with the project outcome. References:

Considerations for Working with Manufacturing - Salesforce

Data Processing Engine (DPE) is a feature of Rebate Management that allows you to transform data that is available in your Salesforce org and write back the transformation results as new or updated records. You can use DPE to process data for standard and custom objects. Rebate Management has DPE templates that you can clone and customize to suit your business needs. The templates either help you to aggregate transactions by different criteria, or help you to manage other rebate processes. The out-of-the-box DPE jobs in Rebate Management use the templates to query, extract, filter and aggregate journal transactions based on the eligibility criteria and calculation definitions of the rebate types. The aggregated data is then stored in the Rebate Member Product Aggregate object, which is used to calculate the payouts for the program members. References: Data Processing Engine in Rebate Management | Salesforce Trailhead Module, Data Processing Engine Templates with Rebate Management - Salesforce, Data Processing Engine | Rebate Management Developer Guide | Salesforce Developers, Data Processing Engine, Batch Management, and Invocable Actions | Rebate Management Developer Guide | Salesforce Developers

When multiple active sales agreements contain the same product for the same account and time period, you can use custom logic to determine which sales agreement to link the order to. You can use the Sales Agreement Order Linking Apex class to implement your custom logic and override the default behavior of linking the order to the sales agreement that was activated last1. References:

Sales Agreements and Forecasting in Manufacturing Cloud

Set Up and Configure Sales Agreements

To forecast at the product hierarchy level, the system administrator needs to create a flow that modifies the Advanced Account Forecasting to include the product category as a custom dimension. The product category is a field on the product object that defines the hierarchy of products. By adding the product category as a custom dimension, the system administrator can enable the regional sales manager to view and adjust forecasts based on different product categories. The flow should use the Data Processing Engine to aggregate data from orders, opportunities, sales agreements, and other custom objects by product category, and then use the Calculate Advanced Account Forecast and Update Advanced Account Forecast Set Partner invocable actions to generate the forecasts. The flow should also assign the appropriate forecast set to the regional sales manager based on their role and region. References: Create Holistic Forecasts with Advanced Account Forecasting, Example: Generate Forecasts Across Multiple Regions with Advanced Account Forecasting, Calculate Account Forecasts Using Flows

Validating the functionality against business process flows is a key step in the implementation or system update of Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud. It helps to ensure that the system meets the business requirements and expectations of the stakeholders, and that it can handle the various scenarios and use cases that may arise in the manufacturing industry. By validating the functionality, you can also identify and resolve any issues or gaps that may affect the system performance, usability, or security. Additionally, validating the functionality can help you to document and communicate the system changes and benefits to the end users and other parties involved in the project. References: Implementation Guide, System Updates

Account Based Forecasting and Sales Agreements are two Manufacturing Cloud functions that should be configured to have a complete picture of both run-rate and net-new business. Account Based Forecasting allows you to forecast your sales revenue based on the account level, rather than the opportunity level. This gives you more visibility into the demand from your existing customers, as well as the potential from new customers. Sales Agreements allow you to manage the sales lifecycle of your long-term contracts with customers, including pricing, volumes, and order realization. This helps you to track and fulfill your run-rate business, as well as to identify and capture new business opportunities within your agreements. References: Forecast Your Run-Rate and New Business with Account-Based Forecasting - Salesforce Help, [Create and Work with Sales Agreements - Salesforce Help]

When facing a deployment error indicating that the Sales Agreement object does not exist in the target environment, the first step the administrator should take is to ensure that Sales Agreements are enabled in the production organization. This is a crucial prerequisite for deploying Sales Agreements-related changes and functionalities from a development sandbox to a production environment, as the absence of enabled Sales Agreements in the target environment can lead to deployment failures .

 Email notifications are an out-of-the-box Manufacturing Cloud function that can be used to notify users if automated processes fail. Automated processes are workflows, processes, or Apex triggers that update records based on certain criteria or events. If an automated process fails, Salesforce sends an email to either the admin who last modified the associated flow or the Apex exception email recipients. The email includes the data that’s involved in the process or flow, including user-entered data, and the error message that caused the failure. You can configure the email recipients and the email content in the Process Automation Settings page in Setup. References: = Select Flow and Process Error Email Recipients, Troubleshoot Flow Errors

Sales agreement cloning is a feature that allows users to create a new sales agreement by copying the details from an existing one. This can save time and effort when creating similar sales agreements for different accounts or time periods. When cloning a sales agreement, the product details, such as product name, quantity, price, and discount, are copied over from the original sales agreement. The new sales agreement is created in draft status, which means it can be edited and submitted for approval. The default start date of the new sales agreement is the current date, not the start date of the original sales agreement. The agreement term details, such as metrics, actuals, and forecasts, are not copied over from the original sales agreement, as they are specific to each sales agreement and time period. References: Clone a Sales Agreement, Sales Agreement Cloning

To meet the business requirements of UC, the administrator should add a custom Material dimension to the Forecast Fact and Forecast Set objects. This will allow UC to group and filter the forecast data by the material attribute of the products. The administrator should also clone and use the standard DPE definitions to populate the new custom metrics for the Material dimension. The standard DPE definitions are templates that can be used to aggregate data from various sources, such as sales agreements, orders, opportunities, and custom objects. By cloning and using the standard DPE definitions, the administrator can save time and effort in creating the formulas and filters for the new custom metrics. The administrator does not need to configure a custom Forecast Context or create new DPE definitions from scratch, as these options are more complex and require more customization. References: Create Holistic Forecasts with Advanced Account Forecasting, Set Up Dimensions and Period Groups, Streamline Forecast Calculations with Data Processing Engine Definitions

 The admin at badger power can set up an eligibility criteria for this rebate type with activity Date >= Jan1 and <= Jan31. This option allows the admin to specify the date range for which the rebate type applies to the transactions. The other options are either not possible or not sufficient to achieve the desired result. For example, setting up a new rebate program with a single payout period for Jan does not ensure that the rebate type is valid only for transactions completed in January. Setting the rebate type to active on Jan1 and inactive on Jan31 does not prevent the rebate type from being applied to transactions that occurred before or after January. Using the effective date on rebate type does not specify the end date for the rebate type validity. References: Eligible and Applied Rebate Types on a Transactional Object, Common Rebate Types

The organization should leverage Partner Visit Management functionality to fill the gap. Partner Visit Management is a feature of Salesforce Manufacturing Cloud that enables manufacturers to collaborate with their channel partners on sales and service activities. With Partner Visit Management, manufacturers can create and assign visit plans to their partners, track their progress and performance, and provide feedback and coaching. Partners can access the visit plans through the Manufacturing partner site, which is a predefined template for Experience Cloud sites. The Manufacturing partner site also allows partners to view and update sales agreements, forecasts, and account information, as well as access resources and training materials. By using Partner Visit Management and the Manufacturing partner site, the organization can support its channel partners by providing functionality, insights, and data, as well as working closely with them to plan their work. References:

if Sales Agreement List View is not selected in the Account Forecast Calculation Settings, no sales agreements will be considered when calculating the sales agreement metric values of account forecasts. This means that the account forecasts will only reflect the opportunity metric values, and not the sales agreement metric values. To include the sales agreement metric values in the account forecasts, you need to select a sales agreement list view that defines which sales agreements to use for the calculations. References: 1: Configure Account Forecast Calculation Settings - Salesforce
