Abstract
A method and system allows multiple customized views which are organization, user role, and end-user specific, to be generated from a single search engine and a product database. The database is assembled to contain product information, pricing information, organization-specific configurations defining approved suppliers and other similar items and views which are defined by organization. The product information is arranged and indexed by key product information. A search mask is created for each product based on various filters to allow selected products to be identified through the filter function.
