One application is a standalone, secure web app which controls the entire user experience of generating Configure-To-Order (CTO) Items. In this mode, the CTO Items are rapidly user-configured and then sent directly to a standard open order in the client ERP system. Or, CTO Items can instead be stored as customer quotes that are convertible at a later date into orders.
Behind the scenes, corresponding Bills of Material, Labor Routings, Price Data, and Product Imagery Data are all instantly and automatically assembled to support the CTO item, and this data is also provided to the client ERP system where applicable.
The hyper-optimized CPQuick user interface consists of a series of questions answered by selecting from displayed options, each filtered for feasibility based on previous answers. By design, each response time following a user selection is under one second, which makes possible very rapid configurations. Users are able to make selections using mouse or keyboard depending upon preference. The photo-realistic product depiction provided by the Product Imagery Data updates on-screen instantly as the user selects product options.
The Product Imagery capability built into CPQuick adds a powerful visual impact to quotes, and it also enables intriguing website-enhancement opportunities. CPQuick uses selected configuration options to drive the creation of photo-realistic product depictions. If applicable, the system can use this Product Imagery to superimpose it onto user-supplied imagery (e.g. doors and/or windows placed on a front elevation photo of a residence, etc.).
