Partners: BOM and Salesforce Quotes

Requirements

  • In order to generate correct BOM, Budgetary quote and Salesforce Quote, user must enter the Opportunity ID or Deal Registration Approval ID.

  • Opportunity value plays a significant role when sizing with Non Nutanix Software only Vendors. If Opportunity is marked for Software only, then then user will be presented with support and license selection page which is applicable to CBL, otherwise user won’t see any support and license selection page.
  • Opportunity is a required field when creating a Salesforce Quote. It also ensure that Sizer isn’t sending quotes creating for velocity program to non-velocity opportunities.
  • If user doesn’t have the opportunity information but would still like to size for CBL/Software choice, one can do so my selecting “Software Choice Only” option from the create scenario page.
