Zuora Quotes Versions < 8.0
This article outlines the deprecation policy for legacy versions of Zuora CPQ, affecting versions below 8.0, and provides guidance on upgrading to meet the minimum requirements.
Deprecation policy
This policy will only affect you if you are on the following versions:
-
Zuora Quotes Versions < 8.0
-
6.54, 6.61, 7.1.1, 7.1.2, 7.1.3, 7.3, 7.31, 7.32, 7.4, 7.43, 7.44
-
To check the version of your Zuora CPQ packages, see Check the Current Version.
This policy will take full effect on October 31, 2023. At that point, any customers who are still using these versions will be required to upgrade to version 8 or higher. As a best practice, it is recommended to upgrade to the latest version of CPQ; however, the minimum requirement is to upgrade to at least 8.0.
Upgrading can be done in stages within the timeline that makes sense for your organization to allocate resources to testing the upgrades in Sandbox Orgs before upgrading Production Orgs. See the schedule below for a full explanation of the timeline.
Upgrade paths
We recommend that you upgrade to the latest packages of Zuora Quotes. The package upgrades are designed to be as self-service and backward compatible as possible, but if you have heavy customizations needing technical expertise, contact your Zuora Customer Success Manager or Zuora Global Support, who can best advise you on resources you can leverage, including Zuora Services.
For further information about the upgrades, see Zuora Quotes upgrade.
