Guidelines for Percent of Total Products Covering MDQ Products

Review how Salesforce CPQ calculates the net total of Percent of Total products that cover MDQ products. (Salesforce CPQ Managed Package)

Salesforce CPQ uses the following formula to calculate the net total of a Percent of Total product that covers a segmented MDQ product.

(MDQ line subtotal * Percent of Total (%)) * Number of segments

For example, you have an MDQ quote line with five yearly segments. Each year’s net total is $1200, and the line's subtotal is $6000. The Percent of Total line that covers the MDQ line has a Percent of Total (%) value of 10. To calculate the Percent of Total line's net total, Salesforce CPQ uses ($6000 * 10%) * 5 = $3000.

If the MDQ line is unsegmented, Salesforce CPQ doesn't include the number of segments in the calculations. In this example, the Percent of Total line net total is $600.

Note MDQ and Percent of Total aren't supported in Service Cloud.
