Fit and limits

When CPQ analytics is not the right layer

Mercura exports structured configuration and quote data for BI. It is not a full data warehouse and it does not replace CRM pipeline reporting on its own.

No configurator in production yet

If sales still quotes from spreadsheets and you have no live configuration sessions, there is little CPQ data to analyze. Fix quoting flow first, then measure it.

CRM pipeline metrics only

If you only need funnel stages and win rates from opportunities, CRM reports may be enough. CPQ analytics adds option-level, BOM, and quote-version detail CRM does not capture.

Enterprise BI as the analytics product

Mercura feeds your warehouse or BI tools. It does not replace Power BI, Qlik, or Tableau design. You still own dashboards, governance, and cross-system models.

ERP or finance as the source of truth for margin

Recognized revenue and actual costs live in ERP. CPQ analytics shows quoted configuration and sales behaviour; reconcile margin truth with finance systems, not only CPQ exports.
