Abstract: A quoting system for housing components, especially cabinets, includes a product database storing a plurality of product identifiers for different cabinet components, each having an associated cabinet style. The database also includes identifiers for products and/or services that are outsourced. The user need enter the description and product or service identifiers only once for an entire quote. The user can assign the pricing by style (or wood species).

Abstract: A quoting system for housing components, especially cabinets, includes a product database storing a plurality of product identifiers for different cabinet components, each having an associated cabinet style. The system further includes a quote database storing a plurality of quotes, each quote relating each of a plurality of pricing groups with each of a plurality of floorplans. A user interface permits a user to associate each of the plurality of styles with one of the plurality of pricing groups. One style within each pricing group may be selected as the primary, so that pricing of all of the styles in the pricing group will be based upon the pricing of the primary style and the pricing of all of the other styles in that pricing group will be overridden automatically.

Abstract: A quote-to-order system builds an order for cabinets for a house directly from the quote provided to the builder. This reduces data entry time and errors. The system also validates the final order relative to the quote and relative to the builder's purchase order. The quote-to-order system takes the user step-by-step through the process of building an order based upon the quote. The quote includes the floorplans in the development, optional layouts and available styles of cabinets. The quote also associates each of these options with a set of SKUs representing the cabinet components and hardware that would be needed for those options. By building the order based upon the underlying quote to the builder, the order is guaranteed to have the correct SKUs and pricing.
