Retrieve existing item configuration

[tdhirendra3221]

HI All ,

Wanted to know if is there anyway to get product configuration data for existing item present in Quote .

Scenario : user configured one item and closed the Quote , now he wants same configurations data and attributes for same item in new Quotes

How can we get it using system id or partNumber or any different approach .we don't want to reconfigured using scripts which will lead to performance degradation. When I checked every main item is having Configuration Id, is there anyway to achieve similar behaviour ?

Thanks

This may not address your issue exactly, but wanted to mention "Product Configuration Import" in case you (or anyone else reading this question) may find it helpful.

This is my thought but you can try it..

In Product configuration, by default you can see Favourites which will be saved at user or domain level. next time when Sales rep wants to have same configuration.. will go to Favourites and pick

Also you can copy the existing quote to new quote which will copy all the information.

In your scenario, during product configuration .. you can introduce some button for sales rep to capture all the attributes values for the product specific for his next quote to reuse. you can save this product configuration values during the quote adding to the cart. In this way.. next new quote... sales rep can choose like copy functionality from where you have saved the information like through quote Number search.

Thanks for quick reply yoganandamuthaiah

We can't use favorites features

All the parent and child items will stored in Quote table , and we want user to select parent item and do a Quote table action lets say dummy name {add to Quote }, and upon that action we wanted all the config [including child component] for selected item to be replicate in cart as it is .This Quote Table will be having items from completed contract .

my main concern was how to get product configured when user selects a item ,

possible way we thought to initialize each component with stored value ,It may lead to performance issue and also each product may require different different attributes so script will be product specific ..

I was looking for solution like using product systemId or configurationId, pulling up all data for particular main item .I tried CPQ configuration API but none them provides required behavior .

Let me know if get any idea
