Overview

You add products to an Opportunity with the Order Entry component, which appears on an Opportunity as the Opportunity Products button. Each product you add creates an Opportunity product (OpportunityLineItem) record on the Opportunity. After adding a product, you can adjust its quantity.
How many products the search returns is configurable. See Configuring Max Number of Products in Search.

Limitations and Common Pitfalls

  • At least one product is required to convert. An Opportunity must have at least one product before it can be converted to an Order — converting a product-less Opportunity is blocked.
  • Opportunities use the standard price book. Pricing on an Opportunity comes from the standard price book; a non-standard price book is rejected.
