I want to split CPQ Quotes by effective start date.  This Trailhead unit's hands-on challenge (https://trailhead.salesforce.com/en/content/learn/modules/salesforce-cpq-order-generation/automatically-split-a-quote-into-multiple-orders) is based on this very scenario.  But when I follow the instructions and test with a Quote where the quote lines have four unique effective start dates, Salesforce only generates one Order containing all quote lines.   

Can't split quote by effective start date

 

Multiple Orders are enabled in my CPQ Configuration.

Installed Package settings for CPQ Orders

 

What am I missing?

    Thank you Andreea, Jayson.  I have CPQ+ in my sandbox, but there's a wrinkle I wasn't aware of.  My typical product bundles include component product options with time dimensions (MDQ), and it's these components that have unique effective start dates.  So I ordered the quote expecting Salesforce to generate one order per effective start date in the product bundle.  But according to this help article (https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=cpq_split_orders.htm&type=5), "component product options can't be ordered separately from their bundle parent."  So that explains why I was only getting one Order.
