Advanced Product Configurator for Manufacturers and Distributors.

Create new items on-the-fly using customized item masks, as well as new long- and short-item descriptions.

The Sage 500 ERP Product Configurator module was designed for use in either distribution or manufacturing environments. Your customer service personnel benefit from an easy-to-use interface for feature/option selection, and integration with Sage 500 Sales Order Entry.

This advanced solution is easy to set up and maintain. The intuitive user interface helps the user configure base products quickly using a double mouse click or search function to choose preconfigured options for each customer order.

Sage 500 Product Configurator builds new parts by starting with a base item and adding features or options to it. New items can be created on the fly using customized item masks, new long and short item descriptions, and other options.

Finished configurations contain unique routings and bills of material built during the configuration process. Sage 500 Product Configurator also builds the item cost and suggested price.

Popular configurations are saved and reused as standard parts. All configurations are based on standard rules that limit or require certain features or options if another feature or option is selected. Final configurations can be validated to make sure that the final item can be produced.

Sage 500 Product Configurator Highlights:

• Easily define base units and maintain the list of available features and options to add to the base unit.
• Quickly configure and build new items from customer specifications.
• Increase accuracy with user-defined configuration rules that enforce whether configuration options are required, optional, or not applicable.

• Finished configurations contain unique routings and bills of material.
• Improve productivity by converting configured routings to part estimates, customer quotes, and work orders.
• Configure new item cost and suggested price, and automatically create a new price sheet for each unique configuration.
