Defining the Scope of a Promotion

You must define the scope of a promotion to determine the types of accounts, the regions, and the products that this promotion will be available to. 

To define the scope of your new promotion,

1. On the left side work pane, click Scope.

2. Define values for the fields described in the following table.

   

   Note

   The default value for each field is All. If you do not select a value, CPQ performs evaluation on all items for each field and that can impact the performance.

   By default, the fields you define are set to be included in the scope of your promotion. Select the Exclude radio button for any parameter if you want to exclude that specific object from the scope of your promotion.
