A company uses Salesforce to sell products to customers. They also have an external product information management (PIM) system that is the system of record for products.

A developer received these requirements:

* Whenever a product is created or updated in the PIM, a product must be

created or updated as a Product? record in Salesforce and a PricebookEntry

record must be created or updated automatically by Salesforce.

= The PricebookEntry should be created in a Priceboek2 that is specified in a

custom setting.

What should the developer use to satisfy these requirements?

AEvent Monitoring

BInvocable Action

CSObject Tree REST

DCustom Apex REST

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

Custom Apex REST services are the optimal solution for integrating Salesforce with an external PIM system. When a product is created or updated in the PIM, the external system can make a REST call to a custom Apex REST endpoint in Salesforce, which then can create or update the Product2 and PricebookEntry records. This method allows using custom settings to determine the Pricebook2 dynamically.

I think this might involve using Custom Apex REST since we need to handle updates from the PIM system directly.
