External Configurator Plugins
Enable sales reps to create quotes that incorporate your product's unique attributes,
bundle configuration, and other information. A CPQ external configurator replaces the CPQ product
configurator for the specified products, while still allowing you to use other Salesforce CPQ
features such as price calculations and product rules.
Available in: Salesforce CPQ Winter ’16 and later |
You can develop your configurator in a Visualforce page or host it in an external web application. Salesforce sends the product information payload to your external configurator, where you can create and modify its attributes, configure bundles, and perform other tasks specific to your organization’s needs. Then, you send the updated payload back to Salesforce CPQ so it can build a quote line for the product with the attributes you’ve configured. If the sales rep reconfigures the product, the payload is sent back to your custom configurator.
