OracleChapter 2Integrating CX Sales with Oracle CPQ2IntroductionIntroductionOverview of the Oracle CX Sales and Oracle CPQIntegrationThe integration between Oracle CX Sales and Oracle CPQ supports standard B2B selling processes, which feature highlyconfigurable products; variable or dynamic pricing models; discount negotiations requiring executive approval; andlarge, branded sales documents.The addition of Oracle CPQ to CX Sales ensures that sales forecasts are reliable and based on real-world quotes. Itensures that sales orders are valid and contain the correct billing and shipping details to eliminate costly change orders.Additionally, the quote data can be fed back into CX Sales so that the business can effectively analyze and improve theoverall efficiency of their sales team.The integration steps described in this guide help you configure a solution that combines the power of theseapplications, while reducing the cost of ownership and the time needed to deploy. However, the integration remainsconfigurable and extensible so that it can support a wide range of use cases serving any industry.Supported Business FlowsWith the integration of CX Sales and Oracle CPQ, sales users can: Create new quotes in the Quotes and Orders tab in the opportunity details page. After users create the quote,they can return to the quote and edit the transaction details. Create new quotes in the Quotes and Orders tab in the account details page. After users create the quote, theycan return to the quote and edit the transaction details. Duplicate a quote on an opportunity or an account. Duplicating quotes can be a quick method to presentalternate solutions to a customer. Create new versions of a quote on an opportunity or an account. Quote versions let users make changes to aquote while retaining a snapshot of the previous state of the transaction. Open previously generated proposal documents directly in the Quotes and Orders tab in accounts andopportunities. View summary information about a transaction in the Quotes and Orders tab in accounts and opportunities. Create and update revenue lines on an opportunity by synchronizing the opportunity with an activetransaction. Once synchronized, the properly validated and priced quote line items are added to theopportunity to ensure accurate forecasts. View a list of currently active and historical quotes and quote lines. Search, filter, and sort these quotes andquote lines to locate specific deals. Browse for an account while editing a quote to choose who they're selling to.The use cases above describe only those features that are a core part of the integration. Many other processes andcapabilities are available to users in each application.3
OracleChapter 2Integrating CX Sales with Oracle CPQIntroductionHow the Applications Synchronize DataThe applications synchronize data between CX Sales and Oracle CPQ using REST and SOAP web services. It's a "pointto-point" integration that doesn't rely on middleware such as an enterprise service bus or cloud integration application.Platform features are included as part of these applications that support the configuration and modifications of thesedata flows.Here are the data synchronization tasks typical in this integration: The application imports Opportunity details onto the transaction in Oracle CPQ when a new quote is created.This information can include deal information, sales stage, and owner, all of which can be useful in quoting. The application imports Account details onto the transaction in Oracle CPQ when a new quote is created. Thisinformation can include details about the buyer, such as company name, shipping and billing address, industry,and other details that can be important for pricing and order fulfillment. The application exports Quote details from the transaction in Oracle CPQ to the Quotes and Orders object whena user completes edits. This information typically includes summary information about the sales transactionlike pricing rollups, approval status, and order info. The application exports Quote Line details from the transaction in Oracle CPQ to the Quote Line Items objectwhen a user completes edits. This typically includes product information, quantities, discounts and list, and netprices. The application exports Quote Line items from the transaction in Oracle CPQ to the Opportunity's revenue lineswhen the user updates the opportunity. This includes product information, quantities, discounts and list, andnet prices.This integration is extensible and additional business objects can be imported or exported as required for your businessprocesses. The data integrations listed above are included in the Oracle CPQ reference application that's typicallyprovisioned for each new customer. This simplifies the setup for administrators and provides a set of preconfiguredintegrations for common tasks.Single Sign-On and AuthenticationThe integration between CX Sales and Oracle CPQ requires the administrator to set up an identity provider thatsupports SAML 2.0 and OAuth. This identity provider will be used to enable single sign-on (SSO) between the twoapplications and allow the authentication of web service calls between the systems. Additionally, the identity providercan enable user federation across systems.Refer to your identity provider's documentation for specific steps on configuring the solution. The CX Sales and OracleCPQ product help provides additional instructions for setting up an identity provider and enabling SSO and federatingu
