In a Salesforce CPQ Scoping Session, the first topic of discussion is typically Business Process Mapping. This involves understanding the current business processes and identifying areas where Salesforce CPQ can provide improvements. It's an essential step in the scoping process as it helps to define the project's scope and identify potential challenges early on. The other topics like Quote Document and e-signature, Order Management, and Products and Bundles are also important but they usually come after the business processes have been mapped and understood.

In Salesforce CPQ, a bundle is a group of products that are known to be sold together. There are three types of bundles: static, configurable, and nested1. The bundle configuration is a significant part of CPQ, and it can make selling complex product offerings easier by providing sales reps with premade product bundles to choose from1. However, whether a customer needs a bundle configuration or not depends on their specific needs and preferences2. Therefore, it's important to introduce the concept of bundle configuration as part of a CPQ project, but the decision to implement it should be left up to the customer2.
