 
      PRODUCT CONFIGURATORMore and more people look for products and services adapted to their specific needs which are available at an optimized price. In order to meet the market expectations, companies take a step further from the standard offer and create a range of alternative offers. Such an approach triggers a need for suitable IT applications facilitating the design of products meeting customer demands. A solution of this kind is a product configurator based on, among other things, variant configuration employed in SAP ERP. The HICRON product configurator helps to customize the standard product in line with the Client’s expectations. The process of configuring a new product draws on the data available in the SAP system, thus enhancing the confidence in the correctness of the configuration and suitability of the new, customized product to proceed to the manufacturing and sales stages. HICRON solution employs a graphic user interface based on a web browser which ensures attractive presentation of the customized product. The user interface also allows for the incorporation of pictures or animations. Thanks to multi-layer architecture employed in the Product Configurator, the solution can be easily adapted to the specific Client needs e.g. creation of a customized interface in line with the corporate marketing templates or integration of additional sources of master data or audiovisual items. The solution can be interfaced with other SAP ERP modules to support the analysis of production cost and volume optimization during the configuration of the product. The configurator software is especially useful in companies with unit or batch production based on variants, from such industry sectors as high tech, automotive, machine manufacturing, furniture and many other. The Product Configurator solution helps to identify the best configuration matching the Client’s needs and is fully connectable with SAP ERP using standard, built-in interfaces. The sales processes are supported by a tool quickly generating proposals of optimized products which can then be used in standard logistics SAP processes, from creating an offer to placement of an order directly in SAP CRM or SAP ERP systems. The Product Configurator available in SAP E-Commerce facilitates the process of selecting the best solution from the point of view of the Client’s specific needs and fits into the product lifecycle management, bridging the gap between the design stage and the standard sales process.
