Price Guidance Gauge
Overview
Beginning in Oracle CPQ 19C the Price Guidance Gauge that provides the ability to create a visualization for current price or discount values at the Transaction and Transaction Line level relative to a range of acceptable values. While the gauge is intended to support pricing guidance, it can be used to depict thresholds and the desirability for any numeric values relative to a range or gradient.
Sales users can hover over the gauge to view price guidance details. Administrators define a simple or graduated scale for a price guidance gauge. A minimum of two thresholds is required, but customers can define thresholds using five color ranges with two variations for each color. When users hover over the gauge, a tooltip displays the values for each threshold. For example, the following image displays a Price Guidance gauge with three thresholds and a hover tooltip.
Transaction Line gauges, which are HTML attributes, can only be displayed in the Transaction Line Details page.

-
Price Guidance Gauges cannot be added to the Line Item Grid, because the Line Item Grid does not support HTML attributes.
