Exporting Bundle Data

Important:

During the export process, NetSuite CPQ bundles and their records are locked, and you can't use the bundles or apply changes.

After updating the bundle to the latest version and installing the migration bundle for NetSuite CPQ Configurator, you can export bundle data from NetSuite CPQ Configurator and Guided Selling bundles. You must export data separately for each bundle.

If you want to make changes after the export completes, unlock the bundle by clicking Unlock in the Migration popup window. However, you must run the export process again to update the backup data.

If you run into issues during the export process, you can repeat some or all of the export steps. For more information, see Solving Possible Export Issues. To access the export log files, see Accessing the Complete Export Log Files.

To export data from the bundle:

  1. Access the options record of the bundle:

    • To export data from NetSuite CPQ Configurator, go to Configurator > System > Global Settings.

    • To export data from NetSuite CPQ Guided Selling, go to Guided Selling > System > Global Settings.

  2. Click the Global Export button.

  3. In the Migration popup window, click Start.

  4. Verify that the export progress is marked as completed.

After exporting bundle data, uninstall the latest bundle version. For more information, see Uninstalling the Latest Bundle Version.

Solving Possible Export Issues

Issues may arise when exporting bundle data. If some export steps don't finish or fail, repeat these steps by clicking the Restart button on the export window.

If no bundle data is found or some export steps still have issues, click the Restart All button to run the export process again.

If issues continue after repeating the entire export process:

  1. Download the issue reports from the export window.

  2. Open a NetSuite support case.

  3. Include the issue reports in the support case.
