From mass customizations to made-to-order masterpieces, product configuration is redefining how furniture businesses quote, design, and produce.

Furniture is one of the most variant-heavy industries:

• A sofa can have 8 fabric options, 5 leg finishes, 3 seat depths, 2 arm styles, and multiple sizes.
• A modular kitchen can be designed in hundreds of combinations.
• An office workstation might change its structure, dimensions, or accessories for each client.

Traditional ERP systems or spreadsheets simply cannot handle this level of configuration complexity, at least not without errors or delays.

That’s where a Product Configurator transforms the entire flow from inquiry to production. In this blog, we will explore Odoo CPQ as furniture configurator software.

What is a Furniture Configurator Software & how does it work?

Customers expect personalized products, faster quotes, and shorter delivery cycles. Manufacturers, on the other hand, struggle with complex variants, manual quoting, and inconsistent production data.

To bridge the gap, we’ve built a custom product configurator module on top of standard Odoo modules that integrates seamlessly with Sales, Inventory, Manufacturing, and Accounting apps, creating a unified process that’s both visual and intelligent.

Let’s look at how it transforms each stage:

Configure your Furniture Product: Build What the Customer Wants

With Odoo as your Furniture Configurator Software, every product can be configured dynamically with:

• Attributes like size, material, color, fabric, finish, and dimensions.
• Predefined compatibility rules (e.g., leather only available for certain models).
• AI-driven suggestions for compatible components or upgrades.
• Real-time validation to prevent impossible combinations.

Example:
A sales rep selects a sectional sofa model, chooses velvet fabric, adds gold legs, and adjusts length and depth.
The system instantly updates the price, BOM, and estimated lead time.

Generate Accurate Price for your Custom Furniture Design

Every configuration automatically pulls pricing from:

• Pricelists or cost-based formulas
• Supplier cost types
• Material and labor cost breakdown
• Optional add-ons or accessories

The system can even apply:

• Dynamic discounts
• Tax rules based on variant
• AI recommendations for profitable configurations

Example:
For a custom dining table, the quote updates instantly when a customer switches from oak top to walnut finish, reflecting the new material cost and tax.

Send an Instant Quote from your Furniture Configurator Software

Once the configuration is finalized:

• The quotation document is auto-generated with product image, technical specs, price, and delivery time.
• The customer can e-sign online or confirm via eCommerce checkout.
• Upon confirmation, the system automatically triggers the Manufacturing Order and BOM generation.

Example:
Your sales team sends a visually rich quote, showing a render or product image, dimensions, fabric code, and warranty, all within seconds.

When a Quotation Becomes a Production Order

Here’s the real magic:
Every configured product automatically generates:

• A dynamic Bill of Materials (BOM) based on selected attributes.
• A Manufacturing Order (MO) with routing, components, and lead time.
• Links to vendor stock and preferred suppliers.

Example:
A custom 3-seater velvet sofa generates a BOM with:

• Frame (model-specific)
• Foam (density as per variant)
• Fabric (Velvet, 8m)
• Legs (Brass)
• Packing material

and sends a PO to the supplier if the fabric is low in stock.

The AI Product Configurator for Furniture

With Odoo 19’s AI capabilities, CPQ becomes not just a configurator, but an intelligent co-pilot for your sales and production teams:

• Instant lead generation from customer inquiry emails.
• AI-generated product descriptions for your website and catalogs.
• Smart BOM adjustments to optimize cost or delivery time.

As furniture buyers demand personalization and faster turnaround, manufacturers that digitize their configuration-to-production process will win the market.

Because every design, quote, and delivery becomes a data-driven, AI-powered experience.Ready to Experience It?
