Product Configurator — The product configurator guides sellers through assembling a valid offer — products, options, quantities — while enforcing compatibility and bundling rules. It reads the catalog and packaging rules upstream, and hands a clean configuration to the pricing calculation engine for costing.
Where it sits in the lifecycle
Product Configurator lives in the Configure & Quote phase
of Win the Deal — the stage where you quote, negotiate, and close on governed pricing.
