A product administrator notices that the price of a warranty product is not being calculated...

Exact Extracts from Salesforce Revenue Cloud (Pricing Procedure and Derived Pricing Documentation):

“Derived Pricing allows a product’s price to be calculated based on another product’s price, either within the same quote or across transactions.”

*“The Derived Pricing Scope determines when and how the derived price is evaluated:

Transactional: The derived price is calculated dynamically when both products are in the same quote or order.

Global: The derived price references a price from the catalog or price book, not quote-specific.”*

“If the Derived Pricing Scope is not set to Transactional, product interdependencies within the same quote will not evaluate.”

Step-by-Step Reasoning:

Scenario: Warranty should price dynamically based on another product in the same transaction.

Root Cause: The Derived Pricing Scope on the warranty product is likely not set to Transactional.

Solution: Update the Derived Price record for the warranty product → set Derived Pricing Scope = Transactional.

Why B is Correct: Ensures the price is recalculated dynamically when the related product exists in the same quote/order.

Why A & C are Incorrect:

A: Variables in the pricing procedure define logic but not scope of calculation.

C: “Is Derived” on price book entries flags derivation capability but not the transaction context for dynamic evaluation.
