Create a custom event in ServiceNow Quote Experience to trigger rule groupings, integrations, and stage transitions based on business-specific requirements in ServiceNow CPQ.

## Before you begin

Any rule groupings or integrations to assign to the event must exist before creating the event.

Role required: admin

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllCPQ AdministrationTransactionEvents.
2. Select + New Event.
3. In the Name field, enter the name of the new field.  
   The variable name is set in camel case from the name you enter. For example, entering <kbd class="ph userinput">Total of Manufacturing Lines</kbd> produces the variable name totalOfManufacturingLines. To use a
   custom variable name, select the pencil icon to the right of the Variable Name field.
4. Select the event level and then select Save.
   * Select Transaction for a header-level event that appears as a button at the top of the quote.
   * Select Transaction Line for a line-level event that appears on individual lines in the quote lines grid.

   The event editor opens. By default, new events have their event access set to No Access.
5. Select Edit Event Access, change the access level to Active, and select Done.
6. **Optional:** In the Actions area, select + Add New Action and choose either a rule grouping or an integration to assign to the event.  
   Multiple rule groupings and integrations can be assigned to the same event.

   When pricing is enabled, you can assign the Reprice action to an event so that the Pricing Management service is called during the event and updates all prices. Some system events such as upsertLines ship with the Reprice action already assigned. The
   Reprice action can be removed from an event if pricing is not needed on the event. For more information, see [Transaction events](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/B5c9PYRDLi6z51n3lSKNwQ "Events trigger rule groups, integrations, repricing, and stage transitions on a quote. ServiceNow Quote Experience provides system events and supports custom events in ServiceNow CPQ.").
7. **Optional:** To configure the event to transition the quote to another stage, enable the Transition toggle and set the transition direction (forward or backward in the stage sequence).
8. Select Save.  
   The new event appears in the events list at the transaction or transaction line level, depending on the level chosen.

## What to do next

Add the event to the quote layout to make it available as a button to users. For more information, see [Create a quote transaction layout](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/IJchMS3euz8O_VPFkU5kLg "Create a layout in ServiceNow Quote Experience to define the quote interface for a stage in ServiceNow CPQ.").
