Configuring Eligibility, Compatibility, and Pricing

Different information is required to configure eligibility, compatibility, and pricing in the following scenarios:

• In an asset-based ordering (ABO) environment. For more information, see Eligibility, Compatibility, and Pricing Using the Configurator in an ABO Environment.

• In a non-ABO environment. For more information, see Eligibility, Compatibility, and Pricing Using the Configurator in a Non-ABO Environment.

• When using the line item UI, as opposed to the Configurator UI

  • The line item UI refers to the Line Items applet in Siebel application. Access the Line Items applet by navigating to (for example) the Sales Order screen, List, then the Line Items view.

  • This Line Items applet contains a Customize button, which allows you to start the Configurator if the product in the order line item can be configured. The Configurator creates a new view (the Configurator UI) to display the line item in a different way, and allow you to reconfigure the line item.

    For more information, see Eligibility, Compatibility, and Pricing Using the Line Item UI.

This topic describes the configuration that is necessary in Business Components, Integration Objects, and Business Service Properties to set up eligibility, compatibility, and pricing for these different scenarios.
