Cardinality in Configuration Multi-Select Menu Attributes

Oracle CPQ 24D introduces cardinality options for Configuration Multi-Select Menu attributes to allow administrators to control the minimum and maximum number of menu items an end user can select. Sales users will receive an error message if they attempt to select a number of menu options that fall outside of the defined range. Once the maximum number of selections is reached, the remaining selections are disabled and grayed out.

The cardinality setting for Multi-Select Menus makes it easier for administrators to define minimum and maximum number of selectable items. This will reduce the need to define Configuration Constraint Rules to govern cardinality in these objects.

Steps to Enable

To set up cardinality for a Multi-Select Menu attribute, administrators select Cardinality from the new Validation field and then enter the desired values for the Min/Max Selectable Items.

  • Any positive, non-zero integer that doesn't exceed the total number of associated menu entries.

  • Blank values - Blank means there either is no min or max depending on the field(s) left blank.
