| PROD O 110 (Thursday, 8:30 AM - 9:45 AM) - Advanced Configurator Product Overview | | This session will focus on how the product provides Intuitive ERP users with the ability to configure any type of product using complex and comprehensive rules. Imagine being able to quickly answer a number of key questions about your product and let the system automatically configure the finished item, including a full multi-level BOM, complete routings and updated costs. Do you have complex pricing rules that must be applied in order to properly price your products (e.g., base price plus $100 for option A, less 6 percent bulk order promotional discount)? Advanced Configurator can automatically incorporate these pricing and feature rules into the easy-to-use interface so that the order-entry staff does not have to do any manual calculations. It also removes the need to manually build BOMs by choosing from a list of parts. This session is perfect for customers not currently using this product. By the end of this session, you will be able to:
- Launch Advanced Configurator from a quote or a sales order.
- Configure an item based on the answers to the product feature questions.
- Configure an item using “catalog” or “smart part number.”
- Create a new smart part number based on the configuration.
- Automatically create BOMs and routings for newly configured items.
- Reconfigure product using the Advanced Configurator interface.
