What Is Vigience Overcast SAP-Integrated CPQ / Quote Management?
Vigience Overcast SAP-Integrated Quote Management enables enterprises who run on SAP to manage the entire B2B sales quote generation, approval workflows, and quote management process 100% in Salesforce!
Overcast is an add-on to Salesforce that marries Salesforce quote management with SAP pricing, SAP VC, WBS elements and business logic.
Most Companies have spent millions in being able to manage the production, sales and service of complex products in SAP. Overcast allows you to leverage these investments by accessing the extensive SAP pricing engine, the variant configuration logic, the available-to-promise checks, the sales area specific business rules and more from within the Salesforce platform.
The result is a seamless, best-of-breed and out-of-the-box solution that you can go live with within weeks!
“Overcast connects SAP S/4 HANA, SAP GTS, and Salesforce CPQ into a seamlessly integrated quote-to-cash process flow. Quotes are configured in Salesforce CPQ based on SAP variant configuration rules and pricing conditions, and orders sent to SAP for fulfillment. It has been a pleasure working with Vigience, and great to see the power and capability in Overcast and how well it can work fitting to our sometimes ‘special’ requirements!”

Vigience Overcast SAP-Integrated CPQ / Quote Management Solution
The SAP-integrated Salesforce CPQ solution is a collection of ready-to-use Overcast Components that make it possible to use Salesforce CPQ in combination with the SAP Variant Configuration (SAP VC) and the SAP Pricing Engine.
The solution allows selected products to be externally configured in SAP by accessing SAP VC in real-time and works without installation of a big add-on in SAP and without replicating SAP configuration and pricing tables to Salesforce.
Enable sales staff, resellers and customers to create, approve and send out accurate complex quotes directly from Salesforce.
Without Overcast
- Sales reps have to login to SAP in order to create a complex quotation (or worse: ask somebody else to do it)
- Customers have to wait for a long time to get a quote returned. No customer self-service possible either
- SAP-based CPQ solution cannot easily be extended for better workflows or to e.g. bundle service
With Overcast
- Sales reps can perform 100% of their work in Salesforce including quote creation and workflow approvals
- Support complex product configuration and pricing in Salesforce in days – without changing anything on the SAP side
- Mix & match configuration engines, e.g. bundle services in Salesforce CPQ on top of SAP-VC configured products
