Salesforce CPQ (Configure, Price, Quote) empowers businesses to manage the entire sales process accurately and efficiently, from product selection and pricing to quoting and contracts. In this blog, we’ll embark on the core components of the Salesforce CPQ data model, understanding how products, pricing, quotes, and contracts are interconnected.
Salesforce CPQ Data Model
Methods for Importing Data in Salesforce CPQ
- Data in Salesforce CPQ can be imported through various methods. Insert, upsert, and update operations can be performed while importing records.
- Salesforce provides three tools/methods to make importing data into Salesforce easier.
Tool | Number of Records (Import/Export) | Import/Export | Additional Information |
Data Import Wizard | Up to 50,000 records | Import |
|
Data Loader | Up to 5 million records | Import and Export |
|
Dataloader.io | Varies by plan | Import and Export |
|
Use Case
The administrator at Sun Solar wants to update Opportunity records from an external database into Salesforce; 36,000 records need to be inserted. Which data import tool will allow the administrator to create these records?
Solution: Data Loader
Reason: Even though the records are less than 50,000, “Data Import Wizard” cannot be used in this scenario as the tool does not allow the import of opportunity data. However, the administrator can import opportunity data into Salesforce using Data Loader.
