Effective with the release of Mainline Pumpers in Ez-ONE, the Customer Request Process will be the method used to obtain approval, specifications and pricing for any special requests not currently available in the sales tool. The CR Process will be the enterprise control system for all product definition and data management.
CR Process Definition:
A CR is a request for an option either structural or bolt-on (not currently in Ez-ONE)
The CR Process will be the mechanism utilized to process any request that may affect customer choices (i.e.: Option availability, pricing or specifications) while configuring an order
The CR Process will facilitate building a Business Case for all requests prior to entry into the Ez-ONE sales tool
A CR can be initiated by anyone with Dealer Portal access
Advantages to the dealer:
Popular (previously SPQd) options can be made available in the sales tool for repetitive use when approved
Clean, precise order details
Eliminates specification issues as E-ONE will create specifications
Consistent, managed pricing
Model compatibility check
Improved delivery times through better product definition
Note: As a quote is generated in the Ez-ONE sales tool, only options with existing sales code numbers established by the Product Managers will be available for selection in the quote. Should there be requests for options not currently in the quote system, you will need to initiate a Customer Request (CR) form for review and approval by the Product Manager and E-ONE team prior to completing your quote. All efforts will be made to expeditiously approve or decline a CR, allowing time for input into the quote as requested or with an approved alternative. A separate CR will be required for each special request as it will ultimately have its own unique sales code number, specification, model availability coding and price. Please strive to complete all CRs related to your quote at the same time so we may review the options as they relate to your specific truck.
Request CR link: Click this link to generate a CR Request. The Customer Salescode Request window appears. This link only appears after a quote is created and an apparatus is configured with a valid Mainline Product configuration.
Complete the fields with as much detail as possible. Drop down lists have been created to assist with general information supporting your request. Missing details may slow the processing of the request.
Click the Print Form button and the hard copy will be sent to the printer.
Clicking the Reset Form button will clear the form.
Click the Submit CR button Clicking this button after all the fields have been completed will send your request to E-ONE for review. and your request will be sent to E-ONE for review.
The Product Managers will review each request upon submission. If declined, a reason and an alternative will be offered within two business days.
When the CR is approved, the sales code will be entered into Ez-ONE and made available for selection. You will be contacted via e-mail when it is available for entry into your quote.
Workflow is the electronic method used to send a quote for Bid Bond requests, Bid Review workflows, Concession requests, Performance Bond requests, Penalty Clause authorizations, and/or as Order entries to the appropriate group. This will speed up the turnaround time for requests on quotes. Be sure all information is complete on the Quote and Financial tabs. Complete any supporting forms and attach them and document files to the Files tab of the Quote window.
Workflow quote link: Click this link to begin the workflow process.
Note: The Quotation Summary, Dealer Financial Summary, and Customer Financial Summary are now automated reports with the current information of the Quote and Financial tabs. Much of the data will be merged from the Quote and Financial tabs automatically.
These are live documents and do not need to be saved or attached. Do not fax/send the old forms unless you don't have a way to scan, save, and attach them as files.
Internal workflow groups will print the documents, sign and notarize if required. The document will be scanned and attached to the quote on the Files tab prior to Workflow approval and returned. A note should be entered stating if a hard copy is sent via mail per department procedures.
In order to improve Quote to Order process times an enhancement to the EzONE Electronic Workflow has been released. Users can workflow a quote to more that one group.
When you workflow a quote to any group you can then immediately workflow it to another group. Good uses for this are: Workflow a quote to bid bond request, then to regional manager for discount, and then to bid review. This will reduce the overall time it takes to process the quotation.
There is one notable exception: You can not workflow to Bid Review and Order Entry at the same time.
On the Quote window, click the Reports tab.
