The requirement:

One Order Product must invoice 2 months of charges on the next invoice, without affecting the other 4 Order Products.

To do this, you must tell Billing to:

Skip 1 billing cycle

Jump ahead to a future billing date

Without impacting other Order Products

Without modifying invoicing schedule globally

The correct way is to set:

? Override Next Billing Date? This forces the next invoice line to include charges up to the new date, resulting in multiple periods billed together.

Why others are wrong:Option

Explanation

B — Hold Billing

Pauses billing entirely; does NOT create multi-month invoices.

C — Target Date

Controls invoice run date, not multi-period billing.

D — Bill Through Date Override

Controls end date of a prorated period, not the number of periods billed.

E — Bill Now

Generates an immediate invoice but still only bills 1 period unless dates are overridden.

Thus A (Override Next Billing Date) is correct.

Universal Containers wants:

ARR__c on Opportunity Line Item (Opportunity Product)

But ARR is currently on SBQQ__QuoteLine__c

They want ARR captured in pipeline reports without adding automation.

Salesforce CPQ Behavior:During Quote ? Opportunity sync, CPQ automatically maps fields only if:

The same API name exists on both objects

The field types match

The field-level security is correct

If these conditions are met, CPQ automatically handles field synchronization.

Therefore:

? C. Create ARR__c on Opportunity Line Item with matching field configurationThis leverages native CPQ field mapping, requires zero automation, and is the recommended Salesforce approach.

Why the other options are incorrect:Option

Why Incorrect

A. Price Rule to copy value

Price rules do not run on Opportunity Products; rules run only on Quote Line Editor.

B. Flow

Extra overhead and maintenance—unnecessary when CPQ already supports native field sync.

D. Cross-object formula

Opportunity Line Item cannot reference Quote Line fields (different object trees). Salesforce prevents this.

Thus, C is the only correct and efficient solution.

Scenario:

A customer has:

A posted invoice

A new order for the same account

Wants to add items without using invoice batches

The correct approach:

? D — Use Bill Now on the new order and consolidate invoicesSteps:

Run Bill Now on the new order ? generates a new invoice immediately.

Enable Invoice Consolidation (Billing settings / Account level).

Combine invoice lines from the new invoice into the already posted invoice.

Salesforce Billing supports invoice consolidation even after one invoice is posted.

Why the other options are wrongOption

Why Incorrect

A — Credit then Bill

Unnecessary; original invoice is correct and should remain posted.

B — Bill Now + reparent invoice lines

Reparenting posted invoice lines is NOT supported.

C — Cancel and Rebill

Only used to correct errors, not to add new order items.

Thus D is the correct solution.
