How does Vlocity Cart represent products with a default quantity cardinality of 0? Note: This question displayed answer options in random order when…

In Vlocity Cart (now Salesforce Industries CPQ), a product with a default quantity cardinality of 0 is treated as an optional item that is not automatically added to the cart. When a user adds a product bundle containing such an item, the optional product is displayed within the cart's configuration view, not as a finalized line item, but as a selectable option. This is represented with an explicit call to action, such as an "Add to Cart" button or a checkbox, which the user must interact with to include the product in their order. This design ensures that optional products are presented to the user without being pre-emptively added to the cart.

Industries CPQ: Product Cardinality in Industries CPQ. This document explains the behavior of Min

Max

and Default Quantity fields. It specifies that when the Default Quantity is set to 0

the product is not automatically added to the cart. The user must manually add it. This supports the concept of an explicit "Add" action. (Reference: Salesforce Help Portal

Industries CPQ: Configure Cardinality for a Product Bundle. This guide details the setup for product cardinality within bundles. The resulting behavior is that products with a minimum and default quantity of 0 are presented as optional choices for the user to add during configuration

which is functionally equivalent to presenting an "Add to Cart" option. (Reference: Salesforce Help Portal
