Sales and Order Management (with Configure, Price, Quote) extends ServiceNow's CRM into the revenue side of the customer lifecycle.

The lead-to-cash flow

  • CPQ, configure valid product bundles, apply pricing and discounts, produce a quote.
  • Order capture, turn an accepted quote into an order.
  • Order decomposition & orchestration, break the order into fulfilment tasks and track them to completion.
  • Amendments, handle add, change and disconnect over the subscription lifecycle.
Built for XaaS and telecom. Sales and Order Management has industry variants for Technology Providers and Telecommunications, where orders fan out into network provisioning and service activation.

Why one platform helps

Because sales, fulfilment and service share one customer record and one workflow engine, a support agent can see the exact order a customer bought, and a fulfilment delay can raise a case automatically. That continuity is the whole point of running CRM on ServiceNow.
