Managing VC - Variant Configurator Health Check

eSpline’s service zeroes in with a very sharp focus on Configure to Order products when compared with a traditional SAP “going live” check that analyzes only the SAP customer’s overall SAP system environment and technical settings

As part of our Managing VC solution, we now offer an automated Health Check Report that examines your product model and lists common and not so common "Best Practices" violations.   Are you seeking what is not compatible in your VC model when you are going to migrate to the IPC?    Its in there.  

Types of checks in the eSpline automated Health Check Report:

1.  Modeling features not supported in the IPC
2.  Potential performance inhibitors
3.  Modeling features incompatible with characteristic based planning
4.  Obsolete or not recommended modeling practices

Maintenance processes – identification of any tools/techniques to improve efficiency of the modeling process.
