| CPQ Configurator set upThe CPQ Configurator is an interactive configurator which is
integrated with LN. The configuration information required to handle the
manufacturing process is stored in LN. To set up the CPQ Configurator, complete the following steps: Specify the profile used for the CPQ configurator. The profile
defines the language and the view of the model of the configurator. - Specify the default profile as part of the user profile.
The user profile overrides the profile defined in the CPQ Configurator Settings (tipcf0111m000) session.
- Before starting sales order configuration LN checks
for the confirmation of the user. When you start the CPQ Configurator, by default the profile defined in the user
profile or Item settings is executed. The authorized user can override the
default profile, by selecting a different profile from the list of profiles
defined in the CPQ Configurator Profiles (tipcf0120m000) session. You can use either the
defaulted, or manually changed profile to start the CPQ configurator.
To configure an item using the CPQ Configurator Integration, complete the following
steps: Create a sales order line, select the configurable item and
confirm the configuration of the product. The CPQ Configurator starts in new web user interface page and
the options defined for the model in the configurator are displayed. Apart from the sales order lines in the Sales package, the
product variant can configured using below sessions: CPQ configurator Web UI You can view product features, options, images of options
and the final images of models as defined in the CPQ Configurator during and after configuration. - You can select the required options to configure the end
product. The final price of the item is calculated once you have finished
configuration.
If you save the data and close the configurator, a
product variant is created. If the features and options you have selected are not
available in LN, they are
created after configuration is finished. Note that options and features that are selected are created in LN. Options that are crated in CPQ Configurator, but not selected for the item modeled are
not integrated.
Note The sales price and quantity is calculated by the CPQ Configurator. The product variant created in the CPQ Configurator and the features, options, option sets (PCF
levels) of the product variant are stored in LN. You can configure,
reconfigure, modify or delete the product variant. After the product variant is
created, you can continue with the standard sales and manufacturing process if
required. | |
