# Order Capture in Industries CPQ

Salesforce Industries CPQ order-capture capabilities enable you to manage the order capture flow using Industries Cart and an asset-based ordering system.

Order-capture capabilities are integral to Industries [CPQ](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_industries_configure__price__quote__cpq_.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Industries CPQ simplifies complex sales processes by ensuring accurate quotes and efficient order capture. It's available in both Angular and Lightning Web Components (LWC) versions, with the enahnced LWC CPQ offering enhanced performance and usability."), which enables you to design and apply business rules that ensure products and services are:

- Available to the business or consumer account.
- Items for which the customer is eligible.
- Priced accurately.
- Compatible with any existing products and services held by the customer account.

Customer service representatives and sales teams can perform a variety of business tasks through guided selling to capture the perfect customer order. The product-service-resource (PSR) data from the Enterprise Product Catalog ([EPC](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_enterprise_product_catalog__epc_.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5 "Salesforce' s Enterprise Product Catalog (EPC) enables you to introduce and effectively manage a portfolio of products that are relevant to customers, released at the most opportune time, and at a low cost. EPC helps you manage the end-to-end processes and product data relevant to the product development, product launch, and in-life product management activities of your organization.")) supports a shared, central single point of truth for all PSR data.

## Order-Capture Flow in Industries CPQ

Order capture flows include:

![An Opportunity becomes a Quote, which becomes an Order, which becomes an Asset.](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-ind-comms_media_energy_managed-264-0-0-production-enus/ff4079f6-a384-475c-b863-578bbbb0ef9b/resources-product/images/order_capture_flow.png)

- B2B flow: Starts from a business account by creating an opportunity, a quote, or an order. An opportunity becomes a quote and a quote becomes an order. When completed, the order becomes an asset. If the customer wants to change the asset, the asset is moved to an order or a quote. A contract is often injected after the order is created but before the asset is created, but scenarios vary.
- B2C flow: Starts from a consumer account by creating an order. When completed, the order becomes an asset. If the customer wants to change the asset, the asset is moved to an order.

Industries CPQ order capture extends the native capabilities of Salesforce to provide comprehensive management of the order-capture flow between the following standard Salesforce objects:

- [Opportunity](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.opportunities.htm&type=0&language=en_US&release=208.6) represents a sale or pending deal. Order capture uses opportunities for business accounts. Opportunities include details about the stage of an opportunity cycle—for example, in process or completed. If an opportunity becomes a quote or an order, information from the opportunity moves forward. Opportunities are identified by their stage, such as prospecting, identifying decision-makers, or negotiation/review. Opportunities also include the projected success, in percentages. Order capture fully integrates opportunities, quotes, and orders to accommodate [asset-based ordering](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_asset_based_ordering_administration.htm&language=en_US).
- [Quote](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.quotes_overview.htm&type=0&language=en_US&release=208.6) represents a record that includes proposed prices for products and services. You can create quotes from opportunities. You can email quotes as PDF files to customers. Quotes capture additional information, such as originating source or campaign, installation ZIP code, state, associated purchase order, and one-time or recurring charges. Order capture integrates opportunities, orders, and quotes to accommodate asset-based ordering.
- [Order](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.order_overview.htm&type=0&language=en_US&release=208.6) represents an order for products or services associated with an account. Orders consist of header information followed by line items of individually ordered products or services. Order capture fully integrates opportunities, orders, and quotes to accommodate asset-based ordering.

From the Cart, you can search, configure, and add products and promotions from the product catalog. You can also add predefined or custom discounts, manually adjust prices, and set the number of each product to order.")

- [Asset is a standard Salesforce object](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.assets_def.htm&language=en_US) that represents an item of commercial value, such as a product or service sold by your company or a competitor, that an account or contact owns. Order capture provides extensions to the Asset object support discounts, special pricing, and customer preferences.

- **[In-Flight Amendments](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_t_in_flight_amendments_183332.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    After you submit an order, you can cancel or modify it. But it must have a status of in-progress, and it can't be past the point of no return (PONR). If Order Management (OM) has fulfilled the order, you can amend the order by creating a follow-on order and submit the changes to be queued until OM fulfills the original order.
- **[Asset-Based Ordering](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_asset_based_ordering.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    An asset is a standard Salesforce object that represents an item of commercial value, such as a product or service sold by your company or a competitor, that an account or contact owns.

    Bulk asset processing enables you to select multiple assets of the same or different business or service accounts and update them simultaneously. With this feature, you can select multiple assets and create a quote or order for them. You can then choose to make individual changes to the assets one at a time or apply common changes to a group of assets all at once. For example, say all assets in a business account for an ISP now support enhanced upload speeds. You can change the upload speeds for all assets in multiple services accounts of a parent business account in one operation.
- **[Mapping Fields Using Field Mapper](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_mapping_fields_using_field_mapper.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**

- **[Adding Pre- and Post-Processing Logic](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_adding_pre__and_post_processing_logic.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    When adding or deleting products or promotions, you can define pre- and post-processing logic to be executed before and after the cart is modified by defining a method containing the desired logic and assigning it to the corresponding pre- or post-processing hook.
- **[Link Line Items to Service Points](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_link_line_items_to_service_points.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    You can link a line item in the Industries CPQ Cart to a service point so you can configure that service point individually. A service point is defined as a service that is available at a physical location. This is an optional step. You must enable cost and margin to link line items to service points.
- **[Configure Extended Asset Line Numbering for Large Accounts](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.comms_configuring_extended_asset_line_numbering.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**
