Automatic Product Creation:
When saving a quote, if the product does not exist, automatically create a new product with the following format:
Format:
ABC-01-1025-0925-001
ABC = 3-digit customer code
01 = Material Code
1025 = Width in inches (e.g., 10.25 inches becomes 1025)
0925 = Length in inches (e.g., 9.25 inches becomes 0925)
001 = Sequential value for each unique content description
Sales Order Creation upon Closed Opportunity:
Once an Opportunity is marked as Closed Won:
Click a button to generate a Sales Order.
Create new items if they do not already exist.
Establish item formulas and routings using preset rules.
GoldFinch Product Configurator Setup
In GoldFinch, configure a Custom Product Configurator page to create finished goods and sync with Salesforce. The following fields will be used:
Product Configurator Fields:
Customer Code
Material
Width
Length
Content
Process for Product Data:
Enter all raw material items directly in GoldFinch; these will not sync back to Salesforce.
Predefined BOMs (Bill of Materials) and Routings based on item segments are configured.
Set up the sales price.
Configure a Cross Reference Table to map the Customer Item Number with the GoldFinch Item Number.
Order Entry for Repeated Orders:
All repeated orders are entered directly in GoldFinch Sales Order. Orders can be entered using either the Customer Item Number or the GoldFinch Item Number for easy cross-referencing.
