January 28, 2003. Harrisburg, PA.

Harrisburg, PA. Anteil, Inc. of Harrisburg, PA has announced the availability of Special Order Validation to the Harrisburg System, the company's La-Z-Boy dealer management solution.

Special Order Validation is a component of the EDI module that was recently made available to Harrisburg System users. Special Order Validation acts as a configurator, verifying that a furniture item desired by the customer can be manufactured by La-Z-Boy.

Fabric colors, sytles, finishes and other options are proven accurate at the point of sale. This eliminates the situation where a customer orders a product, only to find out later that he asked for something that could not be manufactured.

"Special Order Validation will help improve customer satisfaction and loyalty", claims Richard Weiss, Director of Sales and Marketing for Anteil. "It will also eliminate the problem of unwanted furniture being sold at steep discounts, which helps dealers maintain profitability", Weiss said.

Since 1986 Anteil (formerly Keystone Programming) has supported La-Z-Boy dealers with the Harrisburg System. La-Z-Boy is a trademark of La-Z-Boy Incorporated,Monroe, Michigan. Contact Anteil toll free at 1-877-OS-LINUX or 717-671-1141 ext. 32 for more information.
