In Make to Order Manufacturing environment, the company makes the products after receiving the order. Make to order can be executed in two scenarios.
1. A design of product is in place but product is made only after receiving the order. This is because product is quite experience to make and stock before sales. example: Locomotives. Steam Turbines, Portable offices etc.
2. High level design of base product is in place but product may accommodate minor variations according to Customer choice. In such case the customer is presented with a few features and options for each feature to select. Accordingly the customer specific product is made and delivered.
With a product having large number of minor variations, you will find it difficult to plan and monitor each finished product with minor changes. Instead you can plan at sub-assembly and component levels. Finished products are determined only after customer chooses the features.
SAP has variant configuration as one cross- functional module which eases out the design, planning, costing, pricing and sales / purchase of such Products.
