General tab - Product UI Layout

The General tab of the Product UI Layout page allows admins to specify the standard options for the layout, such as the layout name, as well as specify whether the Save, and Validate are displayed or enabled for sellers.

• Core section allows you to specify the name for the layout and the optional description for the layout.
• Information section are metadata values (such as Created At) that are automatically populated by Mobileforce CPQ.
• Action Script Developer Options section allows you to specify the Reads and Updates to be excluded from the layout. These options should be configured only by Advanced Admin users who manually update the Form XML data via action scripts.
• Save Action section allows you to specify the accessibility options when saving products.
• Validate Action section allows you to specify the accessibility options when validating products.

Actions options

When specifying custom product options, the seller typically spends time completing custom form fields. Since information filled in these form fields determines the exact configuration of the product sold, it is important to ensure that the user input is validated and there are no errors. Furthermore, since the filling of the form can take time, it is also important to save partially filled forms to which the seller can come back later and complete the form filling process. To simplify this process, Mobileforce CPQ provides interactive assitance buttons to automate various actions to take when saving or validating the associated quotes. Admins can associate corresponding actions with these buttons, such as Save, Validate and Close..

This section describes how to specify the options for the Save Action, Validate Action, and Close/Reopen Actions sections.
