Encore’s Configurable Products module is designed to allow the systematic generation of product codes and descriptions where there is a range of products which come with optional variations such as size, colour, material, finish etc.The module makes it easy for users to select the required product options and create consistent codes, tickets and descriptions that are specific to each variation.
A series of user-defined ‘attribute’ tables are created and applied to a product group. When a new product is created in that group, the user is prompted to choose the required attributes /variations. The product code and description is created automatically, based from the choices made.
Users can very easily search for products based on these attributes and quickly find the correct description and code. This is particularly useful for users as they look up product information as part of a customer query or process a sale.
