Accessing the Commerce Pipeline Viewer

The Pipeline Viewer button is typically in the upper right corner or as an option in the Actions Menu.

Differentiated Quote & Line level Attributes
Action Attributes columns in the Pipeline Viewer allow you to differentiate the row as a Quote or Line level Attribute.
Pricing Engine Rules in the Commerce Pipeline Viewer
The Oracle CPQ Pipeline Viewer provides real-time processing information for administrators by displaying the last executed Pricing Engine Rules. Beginning in Oracle CPQ 22C, Pricing Engine Rules are included in the Pipeline.
In Commerce, only the Pricing Engine Rules that are executed after the last Save action are displayed in the Pipeline Viewer. For example, a sales user clicks a Modify action that triggers a Pricing Rule.
Note: Multiple Pricing Rules may be used by the Pricing Engine to calculate the final unit price for a product. The Pipeline Viewer will display those impacting the final price.
Notes
Edits cannot be made from within the Pipeline Viewer. All edits must be made in the Catalog Definition section.
The Pipeline Viewer does not dynamically refresh itself. Every time you change an attribute value and want to recheck how its value affects other attributes or rules in the flow, click Pipeline Viewer again.
If new Configuration rules or flows do not appear in the Pipeline Viewer, ensure that either Configuration Cache is disabled or that the segment was deployed so that the Pipeline Viewer is synchronized with current Configuration data.
If a product does not have an associated BOM, the BOM tab in the Pipeline Viewer will not be available.
