A DataPack? That sounds too simple for such a complex issue.

I disagree, C is misleading; external pricing can work with CPQ.

I think duplicating prices into Salesforce, as mentioned in option D, could lead to inconsistencies, so I’m not sure that’s the best approach.

Option C seems a bit off to me; I thought we could still request pricing from external sources, but maybe I'm mixing it up with another topic.

Option A seems the most straightforward, just installing the DataPack. But I'm not sure if that will actually allow us to use the third-party pricing app as they want. Might be worth digging into that one a bit more.

I'm leaning towards option D - duplicating the third-party pricing into the Salesforce Price list. That way we keep everything in one place and don't have to worry about integrating the external app.

The key here is that the company wants to continue using the third-party pricing app, so I'd say option B is the right choice. We can send and receive pricing requests from the external engine.

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. Option C says CPQ pricing is the only option, so I'm a bit confused on how we'd be able to use an external pricing source.
