Configure Product Operations

Manage customer-specific product selections seamlessly from order to production and delivery.

Configured products are created according to the customer's chosen combination of dimensions, materials, colors, capacities, accessories, or functions. The selection made during the sales phase must be technically valid and maintained in the same configuration after the order is placed.

Minerva applies configuration rules throughout the order taking process; it links the resulting product structure to pricing, cost, availability, production, purchasing, and shipping processes.

Configure product ordering process

  • Guided product selection based on needs or questions.
  • Mandatory, optional, and alternative options.
  • Compliance, dependency, and exclusion rules.
  • Price and cost calculation according to configuration.
  • Delivery forecast based on component stocks and production capacity.
  • Order-specific product code or configuration ID.
  • From sales structure to production product tree and route creation.
  • Revision, re-approval, and repricing.
  • The configuration is preserved in the offer, order, production, and service history.

Manage changes in a controlled manner.

Configuration changes made after production or purchasing has begun can have impacts on costs, delivery times, and inventory. The system must determine at what stage the change is possible and whether it requires additional approvals and price adjustments.

Manage customer-specific products not with manual descriptions, but with validated and structured configurations that can be implemented across all operations.
