Article Summary

This document is updated (Summer 2023) to describe three distinct actions that need to be performed in order to make Mobileforce work within your Sugar Instance.

The following topics are a guide on how to directly install and configure Mobileforce for an instance of SugarCRM without using SugarCRM Marketplace or Sugar Outfitters. This is currently how Mobileforce products are installed and set up in a Sugar instance.

Note:

In future, when Sugar Outfitters becomes active, this direct method will not be recommended . Sugar Outfitters is the enhanced SugarCRM Marketplace, which will allow you to more easily install Mobileforce. For more information, see Using Mobileforce CPQ with Sugar CRM

Assumptions:

This document assumes that you have a Sugar Instance with Sugar Sell (in order to use Mobileforce CPQ) and Sugar Serve (in order to use Mobileforce FSM).
