The Access Shared Deal dialog box will display. Enter the Access Key and Deal ID, and click the Continue button. The contact received an email with the Access Key and Deal ID.
Once the contact has accessed a deal using an Access Key, the contact can then view the deal under Deals Shared with Me.

opportunity which means that Partners now have more opportunity than ever before to submit quotes in a variety of ways to be more competitive and win business.
When multiple quotes are approved the Cisco Salesperson may share the quote
with partners in CCW. Partners will have visibility to their own quotes only.
You will easily be able to identify those quotes that are part of a multiple quote
scenario by the status of Approved Not ready to Order (ANRO) inside CCW.

Quotes that have been shared by the Cisco Account Manager will have a new status of Approved Not Ready to Order.
This status prevents the Partner from editing the quote and placing the order until the customer has selected the winning quote. The quote can be ordered when the status is changed to Approved by the Cisco Account Manager. When consumption starts on the winning quote, the Deal Status of the non-winning quote(s) changes to Cancelled. Note: Select Quotes Created by Cisco from Display to locate shared quotes.

UCSS SKUs in CCW if they plan to fulfill through a Distributor that has access to CCW Ordering. Otherwise, they should continue to order through Legacy Ordering Tool, using the Legacy SKUs. Note that only the new SKUs eliminate the need to manually activate and register UCSS and thus Partners are encouraged to put orders through CCW when possible.
Although all 2-Tier Partners and Distributors worldwide will now have access to the
new UCSS SKUs, primarily 2-Tier/Disti users in US and Canada theatres should use the new SKUs in CCW. US/C Distis have access to CCW Ordering, and the new SKUs may only be ordered in CCW.

Ease of doing business with Cisco requires a simplified engagement model enabling Standard fixed-price services delivered by Ciscos Advanced Services team. The time-consuming Statement of Work (SOW) process has been replaced by Single Service Descriptions available here: www.cisco.com/go/servicedescriptions Fixed-scope professional services is a standalone service ordering model now available for all routes to market via CCW.
In this September release of CCW, the system will automate the simplified ordering model for "standard" Advanced Services. The prices are published on the Global Price Lists and wholesale Price List (WPL) making them fixed priced. AS-Fixed Service Offerings are available for: Unified Computing Services (UCS) Collaborative Professional Services (CPS) Cisco TelePresence Service Provider Upgrade and Refresh Service Provider Mobile Packet Core WebEx Security Accelerator
Availability of fixed scope services ordered through CCW will be based upon the partner eligibility to sell in the selected installation country with Single discounts applied bypassing manual approval and giving Partners shorter deal to order times.

We are Asking You and Our Sales Teams to Work in a New Way
When your Cisco AM sends you a Deal ID, ask them to collaborate with you from SFDC This way you can see, edit and order the quote from within CCW When your Cisco AM asks for an Excel BOM, send them a configset ID and key or route/share a config instead Valid configurations are necessary use NGC, DCT, MLC, Netformx, etc upload into CCW!
When Partners make changes to an AM initiated quote, non-std pricing must be updated and re-approved by the Cisco AM feel free to remind them!
