Sales Configurator Success Story to be Highlighted at 2007 SAP Conference

Dave Loomans of Greenheck Fan presents April 24, 2007 at Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta

[ClickPress, Thu Apr 19 2007] An innovative enhancement on top of Variant Configurator will be the subject of discussion at the annual SAP Sapphire/ASUG event next week in Atlanta. Available to over 14,000 participants, Greenheck Fan (www.greenheck.com) executive Dave Loomans will present “Variant Configuration Lessons Learned When Processing High Order Volumes” at the 2007 America’s SAP User Group (ASUG) Conference (www.asugannualconference.com) on April 24, 2007.

Mr. Loomans will not only discuss how Greenheck Fan is using SAP’s Variant Configurator, but also how it added Cincom Systems’ Sales Configurator (www.cincom.com/q2o) to handle its more complex sales, product configurations and high order volumes.

Greenheck Fan has over 70,000 configurable materials, 21,000 configurable bills of material and processes more than 800 orders each day. This is a business-focused presentation that will cover system performance, integration, project management and best practices.

The key points of the presentation include:

•Understanding the challenges and opportunities in a large-scale SAP Variant Configurator implementation.
•Understanding how heavy use of the SAP Variant Configurator can affect system performance.
•Learn how to maintain acceptable performance levels without spending a lot of money.
•Learn about integration with Cincom’s Sales Configurator and other shop-floor systems to satisfy all of the requirements from quote-to-cash.

“Cincom manufacturing customers and Cincom partners understand the power of adding Cincom’s Sales Configurator to their SAP systems,” said Jim Wilson, program director, Cincom Manufacturing Business Solutions. “Our out-of-the-box integration with SAP enables rapid, measurable success in the quote-to-cash process – we are pleased that this customer has chosen to share their success with the SAP community.”

The ASUG Annual Conference will be held on April 22-25, 2007 in conjunction with the SAP Sapphire Conference at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Georgia.
