A sales rep notices that while creating a quote, the Browse Products button isn't visible...

The Browse Products functionality is part of the Product Discovery experience in Salesforce Revenue Cloud. For a user to access and utilize this interface during quote creation, they must be assigned the Product Discovery User permission set. This permission set includes the necessary access to Product Discovery components, UI elements, and underlying Apex classes that support the Browse Products button on the quote page.

According to the Salesforce Revenue Cloud Product Discovery documentation, failure to assign this permission set will result in the Browse Products button being hidden or inaccessible, even if the rest of the CPQ package is functional.

Option A refers to the Product Configurator, which enables configuration of bundles and rules, but doesn’t control the Browse Products experience.

Option B is related to users who design product configuration rules — not end users like sales reps.
