Field Mapper is a custom field mapping tool to map fields between the Opportunity, Quote, Order, and Asset objects.
​Salesforce Industries Communications, Media, and Energy supports cross-line item (XLI) actions, in which line items move from an opportunity to a quote to an order to an asset and then back again. The actions move order information between objects and support moving data to or from any object.
Field Mapper supports the CPQ process to enable data movement between objects. You can move order information between objects. You can move additional fields to each object by mapping fields from one object to fields on another object. Using Field Mapper, you can move any field from any source object to any field of the same type in any destination object.
From the Service Assets related list on an Account record, you can change one or more assets back to an order or a quote.
When an order is complete, you can create assets from the products within an order.
You can create a quote from an opportunity.
For information on resetting the mappings to the out of box defaults and picking up any new fields that have been added to the data model, see Field Maps Maintenance.
