Offers and orders with the CIS configurator of SAP Business One
The SAP Business One CIS configurator is an easy way to create offers and orders in your browser. Configuration can be performed directly in SAP B1 or via a web portal. This allows customers to configure and order the product they want themselves with the CIS configurator, which calculates the price using SAP Business One price lists.
The CIS configurator also allows you to create sales offers for products with multiple options. You can create different rows, each with its own configuration that can be started up in SAP Business One.
SAP Business One users can add products that have been configured with the CIS configurator to their sales offers. After the user has selected the product to configure in SAP, he or she is guided through a series of questions and answers. The responses are converted into a list of elements that are used as a configuration. The corresponding items are then added to the offer or sales order. The pricing is dynamically retrieved by SAP when the configured product is created.
The sales offer containing the configuration can be copied to a sales order and transferred to a production order with the corresponding number of items. Production, sales, and assembly parts lists are also supported.
The simple and intuitive software makes it easy to define even complex configurations. In this way, thanks to a preconfigured question-and-answer procedure, the product can be put together in real time in just a few minutes exactly in accordance with the customer’s wishes – without the risk of creating invalid or non-existent variants.
