List Filters

Salesforce administrators can set up List Filters that get applied to List Components during the quoting flow. The List Filters improve the efficiency of the quoting process by surfacing only the relevant items in the lists. For example:

  • If you add a filter condition to the Rate Plan List, "Product Rate Plan.Service Region = Quote.Service Region", during the quote creation process, your users will only see the rate plans that are available in the service region that the user specified on the quote. In this example, the Service Region field would have been added as a custom field on the Product Rate Plan object and the Quote object .
  • If you have a filter condition, "Billing Account.Status = Active", where Active is a static value, only the accounts with the Active status will be listed when user selects a billing account during the quote creation process.

You can add List Filters to the lists that were implemented via the List component, the QuickList component, or the Lookup component. 

See Configure a List Filter on a Custom List Component for adding a List Filter to your custom List Component instances.

This setting is effective exclusively in legacy CPQ and does not apply to CPQ X.
