3576323 - Can a Custom Dictionary be set as Default Dictionary in CPQ?

Symptom

User would like to know if a custom dictionary can be set as default for all new users?

Environment

SAP SALES CLOUD CPQ

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Add a Custom Dictionary to Dictionaries
  2. Set Custom Dictionary with a the lowest rank available (e.g. Rank 1)
  3. Expect to see this Dictionary as Default Dictionary for new users

Cause

  • This is a known limitation in the software.

Resolution

  • When a User sets a Custom Dictionary as the lowest rank with visibility of 1 (meaning True)
  • The CPQ system will automatically choose the lowest ranked system Dictionary as the default dictionary for all new users
  • Hence, a custom Dictionary cannot be set as the default dictionary for new users created through the Admin Setup
  • A user can set a custom dictionary as the default dictionary through their own individual user page
