From dreams to reality

Gecode

You need to buy a new car and want to try out configurations to know what can be done or is affordable? It is now possible if your car dealer uses the SAP S/4HANA tool.

SAP builds its variant configuration engine in their S/4HANA platform on top of the constraint solver Gecode. The configuration engine’s role is to keep track of a range of values, how these are combined, and to ensure that only meaningful configurations are offered to users. To do so, it uses Gecode to ensure that combinations are valid and that no restrictions are violated.
