Product Configurator in Acumatica

Manufacturing firms are as unique as the products they build. And for those companies who make complex products, your job is to orchestrate a lot of moving parts—both figuratively and literally. Everything from the quote to the design to the product features, options, and dimensions needs to be managed and built to the needs of your customers with as little hassle as possible.

Why Product Configurator Delivers Performance and Quality

For many manufacturers, especially those who want to offer a variety of options to customers, the use of a Product Configurator is a necessity. Unfortunately, too many systems leave manufacturers spending a lot of time setting everything up from scratch and losing track of the process. Add a couple revisions, and it’s taking hours for someone to just set the product up for production—let alone build it.

But there are better ways to approach this. Acumatica’s Product Configurator delivers a rules-based software that allows a user to configure products in multiple ways on quotes, sales orders, and production orders. 

Part of the larger, connected, and user friendly Acumatica Manufacturing Edition, the Product Configurator helps you to enhance quality and accuracy when manufacturing complex products. Configure product features, options, and dimensions to maximize quote-to-order and manufacturing performance.

Key Features of Acumatica Product Configurator

Getting from quote to order, order to production, and from production to end product requires a lot of things to go right. Acumatica’s Product Configurator empowers you to make this happen. Whether it’s reducing the time it takes to create a new order, giving complete control over revisions, or helping you provide accurate quotes no matter how complex the product, Acumatica makes your job easier.
