See what’s new in SAP CPQ for SAP Cloud ERP 2602, with four updates that expand partner quoting, improve team collaboration, enable safer post-order review, and strengthen quote governance.

In this video, we highlight new capabilities designed to help you sell complex products faster and more accurately, with better control, fewer conflicts, and stronger compliance across the entire quoting process.

🔑 New External user license — Extend quoting access to resellers, distributors, and other non-employees in a cost-effective way. Admins gain clearer visibility into usage, while external users get the quoting access they need—without internal management rights.

👥 Simultaneous quote usage (live presence + change alerts) — Real-world deals involve multiple contributors. With 2602, users see who else is active on a quote (header and item-level indicators), plus UI notifications when changes occur—reducing overwritten edits, duplicate work, and delays.

🔍 View-only product configuration for ordered quotes — After an order is placed, quotes are typically locked. Now, users can open a configurable item in a read-only “View” mode to review selections safely—supporting faster customer responses, easier audits, and zero risk of changing a finalized transaction.

🛡️ Visibility + editability permissions for standard quote fields — Administrators can now set granular controls for standard fields (for example: Market, Effective Date, Pricebook, Sales Area) based on permission groups and quote status. The UI adapts automatically as quotes move through draft, submission, and approval—helping reduce accidental changes and unnecessary approval loops.
