We are trying to set up the features and options and would like imput from other users who have successfully implemented this function.   Any input as far as how it works would be appreciated.  Thanks  - Mary ???

We are using F&O here for our products. It allows us to configure our samplers without having to have a separate part number for each configuration.  The features or options are created similar to BOM's.  You can enter pricing for each feature, and can have the prices roll up in the sales order.
It does not have any control logic, i.e. it can't check for illegal configurations.  Also, we write in descriptions of the selected options because our part numbers and descriptions would be cryptic to the customer, and are suppressed when we print the packing slips.
From the little I have heard about software that handles features and options, this is limited, and I am hoping that the EVO programmers will be working on improvements soon.

Just started to try using the F&O and no matter what is selected at the time the order is entered.  The Option is put on the S/O -- and no, mandatory is not selected under Feature Settings.
