Suggested Answer: D

This way, you can preserve the historical data of your sales transactions related to the deactivated products without deleting them from Salesforce.You can also avoid syncing issues between your ERP and Salesforce by keeping the product status consistent1.

Deactivating a product in Salesforce means that it cannot be added to new opportunities or quotes, but it remains visible on existing ones1.You can also deactivate all related prices for that product at the same time by enabling a setting in Product Settings1.To mark an opportunity or quote as inactive, you can use a custom field or a workflow rule that changes its status based on certain criteria3.
