CPQ Configurator Settings (tipcf0111m000)

Use this session to define the settings for connecting to a CPQ environment. These settings must match entities in the CPQ Configurator.

The CPQ configuration templates are created in the CPQ Configuration Designer when the connection is defined for the first time. These templates can be updated any time, to reestablish the templates in CPQ or to update in case new template definitions are supported by Infor LN.

Note: Two sets of templates are supported. If the Configurations by Site field is set to Active in the Implemented Software Components (tccom01000s000) session, the Product set of templates is created and updated. In other cases, the set related to MFG Material and MFG Operation rules is updated.
