Basic navigation

The CPQ Enterprise Quoting user interface consists of a navigation panel on the left and a center pane where forms are displayed for viewing, adding, editing, and deleting records.

Your available menu selections in the navigation panel are based on your user role. See Form access by role.

This table describes basic functions that can be performed using icons at the top of most forms where records are added:

Icon Function Description
EQ create Create Click Create to add a new record.
EQ open Open Select a record and click Open to open an existing record.

On many forms, you can also click the record name or ID to open the record.

EQ delete Delete Select a record and click Delete to remove the record from the system.

Generally, if a record is still associated with another entity in the system, it cannot be deleted.

EQ sort Sort At the top of record grids, you can click a column name to sort that column alphabetically in ascending or descending order. This sort icon is displayed as you move your cursor over the cell.
EQ filter Clear Filter Also at the top of most record grids, fields are provided for filtering the list of records. Results are displayed automatically as you enter filter criteria. Click Clear Filter to clear the filter field(s).
EQ copy Copy System messages can be copied and used for making new messages. Projects and jobs can also be copied. Select a record and click Copy to make a copy.
EQ translate Translate If your application is set up to support multiple languages, then after entering values in applicable fields, click the translate icon to specify translated values.
