I hear eSpline has a translator to Oracle CPQ?

Oracle CPQ logo - midYes, we do have a translator for SAP VC models to Oracle CPQ | BigMachines
 
eSpline has had the ability to extract a Variant Configurator product model for many years and it has been tested with VCandBig - Side-bySide 200x113 1,000s of  SAP models.  We have translated 3rd party configurator applications to the SAP VC and now have the ability to translate SAP Variant Configurator rules, tables and BOM's and import all objects to Oracle CPQ | BigMachines.  
 
The VC rules patterns are analyzed and rule logic is translated and loaded so that Oracle CPQ rule behavior is  virtually the same in either application, so that the investment in the Variant Configurator can be leveraged and continued to be used.  more information button
