Hicron Fiori Vehicle Configurator

HICRON Fiori for Automotive components provides Automotive industry-specific functionalities enabling Vehicle, Parts and Warranty Claims processes to be managed using the latest SAP S/4HANA related technologies, i.e. SAP FIORI UX and Embedded Analytics. One of Hicron's Apps of the SAP Fiori Suite is Vehicle Configurator. 

Business Scenarios

As a FIORI app, Variant Configurator can be used by both:

  • Dealers – using dedicated SAP FIORI Launchpad as a Dealer Portal enabling direct, secure and controlled access to Importer SAP system
  • Importer Employees – when managing back-end vehicle-related processes

An exemplary business case for dealers is a mobile scenario, where a dealer’s sales employee can use the Vehicle Configurator on his phone or tablet and configure the requested vehicle together with a customer when e.g. presenting a demo vehicle or even during a demo car drive. Live pricing of the configured vehicle is presented. The sales employee can seamlessly check if the required configuration (or similar) is available in the dealer pipeline and what is the estimated delivery time. If the required vehicle is available in the pipeline, it can be reserved or ordered; if not, a sales order for a made-to-order scenario can be initiated directly from the Vehicle Configurator app.
