What is Product Configuration?

Product Configuration in ERP123 utilizes an integrated software tool known as a Product Configurator to guide the end user through a series of questions that the user must answer. These answers tell ERP123 how to construct the product structure based on the product options chosen

It's the fastest way to create orders

Product Configurators are typically used on an order desk or a website where there are a finite number of available product options. You can create product configurations ranging from very simple to complex and parametric. Data generated in Product configuration is used to:

Dynamically create the work order Calculate the list price for the product Create a “smart part number” for the options chosen
