You can use opportunities with transaction type OPBA (banking opportunities) to store the need analysis data of a customer and eligible product proposals. Banking products are proposed according to the customer's need and eligibility criteria. You can create a case from the opportunity and execute scheduled actions from it to automatically create quotations for each selected product. The price conditions for the proposed products can be fetched from an account-managing system at quotation level.
