An administrator at Cloud Kicks creates a new product and needs to add it to a newly created custom price book. However, when attempting to add the product to the custom price book, the product is not available for selection. What must the administrator do first to resolve this issue?

  2. B
    Associate the product with an active Sales Process assigned to the opportunity stage.
  3. C
    Map custom product fields to custom opportunity line item fields in Lead Conversion settings.
  4. D
    Deactivate the Standard Price Book so custom price books take precedence.

Answer

Create an active price entry for the product in the Standard Price Book.
Before a product can be added to any custom price book, it must first have an active price entry in the Standard Price Book. Once the standard price entry is created and marked active, the product will become available for assignment to custom price books.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Identify the prerequisite requirement for adding products to custom price books in Salesforce.
Salesforce mandates that every product must have an active standard price entry in the Standard Price Book before it can be added to a custom price book.
The standard price serves as the base price entry for product management across all price books.
2
Add an active price to the Standard Price Book for the new product.
The product becomes available to be selected and added to custom price books.
Fulfilling this dependency enables custom price book entries for that product.
