For a deep dive into amendments and renewals, watch this video:
Your account’s renewal model and your use case determine the way you perform amendments. Regardless of your method, Salesforce CPQ creates an amendment opportunity and an amendment quote. The amendment quote contains quote lines for all of the contract’s assets and active subscription products. Expired subscriptions (subscriptions with end dates before the amendment quote’s start date) aren’t included. You can also add new quote lines to the amendment quote.
We’ll review amendment methods and some key fields at a high level here. Later, you can check out our tasks for step-by-step explanations and examples.
