About These Rules

This page outlines the boundaries and capabilities of the RevOps Support team. Understanding these rules helps ensure smooth collaboration and sets clear expectations for what can be handled directly versus what requires additional approval.

CPQv2 Product Rules:
• Application Security Core (Legacy) Monthly Cap already selected → Cannot add WAF products
• Zero Trust Enterprise Monthly Cap already selected → Cannot add Access products
Approved Quotes: Cannot make product or MRR updates in approved quote. Must clone and make updates in the cloned quote.

Account/Opportunity Transfers: Most transfers must be processed by DataOps team (except deferred ACV - see "Yes" section).
Urgent Quote Approvals: Cannot approve a quote for all approvers just because AE says quote needs to be sent to customer immediately.
IO/Amendment Quote Timing: Cannot create IO or amendment quote when contract service date is less than 30 days from customer's contract end date.
Renewal Quote Start Dates: Cannot change start date in renewal quote. Must be one day after current activated CPQ contract end date.
