Salesforce is transitioning from CPQ to Revenue Lifecycle Management, and we're excited to announce that Salto now fully supports Revenue Cloud Advanced with the same powerful capabilities that have made our CPQ support indispensable. Our support for Revenue Cloud Advanced builds on our proven "configuration data as metadata" approach. Unlike other DevOps platforms, Salto treats configuration data records as if they were metadata by logically identifying records across orgs.

Salto understands the RCA data model at a deep level, including complex dependencies, object extraction, and creation order requirements. This comprehensive understanding enables a seamless deployment experience for both configuration data and metadata, eliminating the traditional barriers between these two types of components. In addition, Salto offers a unique visualization for RCA objects that includes the object dependencies, making it easier to understand the impact of adding or changing RCA elements. This combination of unique capabilities allows us to offer our complete suite of DevOps capabilities to RCA configuration so you can implement and maintain it as you do with any other metadata types.

Key capabilities include:

• Smooth org-to-org deployments
• "Where is it used" and dependency analysis
• RCA release management
• Version control, PRs, and automation
  ‍

Use Cases for Revenue Cloud Configuration Management

Revenue Cloud Advanced implementations and migrations from CPQ are complex undertakings that span months of work and multiple team members. These projects require meticulous preparation, extensive testing across environments, comprehensive documentation, and rigorous version management to succeed.

Salto provides a single source of truth for your implementation, enabling sandboxes to be properly tested before production deployment, maintaining a complete history of all configuration changes, and automatically documenting relationships between components. This comprehensive approach reduces implementation timelines, minimizes risk, and ensures that both technical teams and business stakeholders have visibility into the implementation progress at every stage.

Org-to-Org Deployments

Deploy RCA configurations between orgs using the same deployment flow we offer for metadata, eliminating the need for complex data migration scripts or manual updates. This approach transforms what would typically be weeks of careful planning and manual execution into a fast, reliable process.

Our deployment capabilities include:

• In-deployment dependency detection: Salto automatically identifies and flags all related configurations of the deployment package content
• Proactive error detection and validations: Built-in validations catch potential issues before they impact your production org
• Conflict resolution: When conflicts arise, Salto provides a clear explanation about them alongside resolution options, enabling informed decisions rather than blind overwrites

Automated Change Tracking

RCA implementations will likely extend over months, involving numerous configuration iterations as requirements evolve and stakeholders provide feedback. Without proper tracking, these changes create a complex web of modifications that become impossible to manage.

With Salto, you can track versions automatically with scheduled org fetches that generate change logs with the option to restore previous versions if needed.

Version Control for RCA Configurations

Revenue management configurations represent critical business logic that directly impacts your bottom line. Salto is the only DevOps tool that allows you to push RCA configuration to Git, bringing the same governance standards to your RCA implementation.

This allows you to gain audit trails tracking all changes, rollbacks, systematic documentation, collaborative reviews through approvals, and robust compliance through complete traceability—bringing enterprise-grade governance to your revenue management implementation.

Explore your Revenue Cloud Implementation Before it Hits Production

Understanding the intricate relationships within your RCA implementation is critical for successful deployment and ongoing management. Salto Explore provides unprecedented visibility into how your RCA components interact, giving you confidence before pushing changes to production.

With Salto Explore, you can:

• Search: Quickly find specific components and see their context within the broader implementation
• "Where is it used?" - Identify relationships of both data records and metadata

This level of visibility is simply not available in Salesforce's native tools, making Salto Explore an essential capability for complex Revenue Cloud implementations and migrations from CPQ.

Manage your RCA Releases with Salto Pipelines

With Salto Pipelines, you can manage and track your RCA deployments so you can keep ahead of the releases. This includes:

• Visualization of the pipeline and deployment tracking
• Promotions and back-promotions of RCA deployments

Getting Started
