New Features and Enhancements
The following features are new to Conga CPQ in this release.
Exporting Records
You can now select and export multiple records from listed grids in CSV or Excel format by enabling checkboxes for row item selection.
Ability to Create Flows and Associate with Proposal
Revenue administrators can create flows for different types of quotes based on your business requirements or type of quote. Once the flow is created, you can associate that with your proposal to complete the quote life cycle. This enables the sales representatives to go through the entire quote life cycle, including creating a quote, cart, pricing, ABO, proposal generation, approval, review, and sign-off.
When Sales representatives create a proposal, the System flow is selected. Sales representatives can select the required flow name from the Flow dropdown while creating a proposal. You can also update the flow after creating the proposal by clicking the Edit link on the proposal detail page. Based on the business requirements, you can create new flows as required and associate that with your proposal to complete the quote life cycle.
To achieve this, a new field called "Flow" is introduced on the quote header. This "Flow" field allows users to select a flow when creating a quote header. If needed, the "Flow" field can be hidden. Revenue administrators can create workflow rules to set a default flow name when a quote header record is created.
Manage Installed Product Settings for Asset Restore Fields
You can manage asset settings from global settings, enabling setup for Cart and Installed Products pages. Asset fields will be restored from the original asset upon re-selection of an option during an asset operation. The renewed Start Date and renewed End Date will be restored during renew operation.
Renewal Settings for Assets under Global Settings
System administrators can manage asset settings from global settings to set up the Cart and Installed Products pages. You can configure settings like Renewal Business Object Type, Renewal Execution Mode, Renewal Group Fields, and Renewal Lead Time.
Ability to Accept Proposals
Sales representatives can accept the proposal when they receive acceptance from the approvers. You can see the Accept option only when the proposal stage changes to Presented and the associated cart status must be in the Finalized stage.
