Abstract
The K-& V-Matrix and the related software-tool provide a useful support for analysing and structuring product variety focussing on aspects about the configuration. One of the main benefits of method and software is the deep integration to each other. Furthermore one of the most useful features is the possibility to verify the data of the method with a query-tool. In order to enable an immediate verification, a generic, product-independent user interface is required. In this contribution an approach of a simple, web-based and product-independent interface is presented and discussed.
