Efficient variant management
with CREALIS® CPQ and SAP® interfaces
Variant configuration based on SAP® VC/IPC
Effortlessly master complex product variants
Manufacturing products with many variants presents companies with the challenge of handling complex product structures and pricing efficiently. With the Variant Configurator (VC) and the Configurable Material (KMAT), SAP® offers established tools for mapping product structures, bills of material (BOM), and pricing logic. The seamless integration of SAP® into sales processes makes it possible to offer customised solutions both quickly and precisely. The variant configuration also simplifies the maintenance of master data and optimises the flow of information in sales, design, and production.
The integration of CREALIS® CPQ (Configure, Price, Quote) with SAP® provides enhanced sales support. CREALIS® CPQ accesses the SAP® IPC (Internet Pricing and Configurator), which processes the KMAT models from SAP® ERP live. The solution extends the classic SAP® product logic with numerous functions. The technical relationships typically defined in the SAP® KMATs can be supplemented by Guided Selling models tailored to different user groups. The multi-level configuration can be mapped using both model worlds (KMATs and CREALIS® models), ensuring no limitations on complex products and systems. CREALIS® models can supplement KMATs with sales-specific information without mixing technical and sales views within the KMATs. The CREALIS® world can easily visualise the product configuration in a market-specific and user-specific manner, adding a pre-sales configuration. Dynamic visualisation in 3D and 2D, provided via the intuitive CREALIS® PDM maintenance system, makes configuration an exceptional user experience.
The user experience is fully tailored to meet the challenges of today’s mobile work environment. CREALIS® CPQ offers optimised configuration views for all devices, the usability of which is continuously improved. The modern technical basis of CREALIS®, continuously updated, ensures consistently reliable applications in a software landscape subject to constant change.
The transition to SAP® S/4HANA has further improved CREALIS® CPQ integration. The use of the SAP® Variant Configuration and Pricing (VCP) module enables even more efficient processing of configuration data at runtime, resulting in faster and more precise product configuration. This integration optimises sales processes and increases the competitiveness of companies.
