Additional assortment is an assortment used to create structures (such as double-glazed windows, handles, imposts), as well as an assortment that is additional to the structure or collection and may not affect the structure (such as blinds, roller blinds, mounting materials, packaging).

To calculate the cost of structures, we use your price list for basic templates and the interpolation method. The resulting price is almost identical to the calculated material costs.

To create a price grid, you take the minimum and maximum permissible dimensions for each template separately and calculate prices in this range with the selected step (the price grid step does not have to be uniform).

Ten points in height and ten in width are sufficient for an accurate calculation (the greater the number of calculation points, the more accurate the resulting price will be). If it is not possible to manufacture a structure when certain sizes intersect, this pair of sizes (height + width) is omitted.

 

 

In most designs, the user can independently divide any part of the block with an impost (add a jumper) and add an opening in the desired place, allowing them to achieve the desired window configuration.

 

 

When calculating, the program focuses on the existing design template that is closest to the resulting design (without opening).

The AI then analyzes all existing openings in the design and adds their cost, based on calculations using your templates. All calculations are performed according to the actual dimensions of the opening area.

The more templates (price grids) you upload, the more accurate the prices will be and the faster the calculation will be. The complete list of available templates has been compiled based on many years of experience and is the most optimal.

Prices are uploaded separately for each collection (profile system).

To upload, you need to know the ID of your collection and the ID of the templates for which you will be uploading prices. To find them, go to the “Prices” section in the corresponding collection (they are written on the template for each template). The template ID is the same for all collections of the corresponding product type.

The price grid that is loaded is the cost of such a design in the selected configuration.

Each product type has a list of options that the user can change when creating the desired design. The options selected by default must be included in the price that is loaded. They are defined in the “Basic collection parameters” section.

In terms of the system, all collection options are elements of the “additional assortment” or “company colors” — they must be created in advance to fill the collection.

When the user replaces one of the design elements with an alternative, the program subtracts the cost of the base element and adds the cost of the selected one (the list of available elements for each option must be configured in the “Collection colors” and “Collection compatibility” sections). The main options are double-glazed windows, handles, imposts, etc.  

Full list of options:

For window collections and sliding systems:

• Default collection colors (profile, base, and seal colors)
• handle
• transom
• double-glazed window
• burglar-proof

For balcony doors:

• Default collection colors (profile, base, and seal colors)
• handle
• impost
• glass unit
• burglar-proofing
• threshold
• horizontal connector
• vertical connector

For entrance doors:

• Default colors of the collection (color of the profile, base, and seal)
• handle
• glass unit
• hinges
• lock
• threshold
• horizontal connector
• vertical connector
• impost

For interior doors:

• Default colors of the collection (color of the profile, base, and seal)
• handle
• glass unit
• hinges
• lock
• threshold
• імпост

The additional assortment is divided into two options based on the cost calculation principle:

• Category: Double-glazed windows. The resulting price consists of three parts
  • price per area  (price_primary)
  • price per perimeter (price_secondary)
  • price per unit (price_piece)
• An example of such an item in the file (item number on the portal and three prices):

• All other categories currently have only one price per unit of measurement. An example of such an item in the file (item number on the portal and price):
  
  

 

Prices for the entire additional assortment can be downloaded in a single file. Prices change only for the assortment present in the file, i.e., the file may contain only those items for which there are changes. Example of the resulting file:

 

 

The system has a concept of a “derivative glass unit” — the main purpose of its creation is to simplify price administration. That is, there is a basic glass unit with its own prices per area, perimeter, and unit. There can be many derivatives of this basic unit, where prices per area and perimeter are calculated by a coefficient to the prices of the basic glass unit, and each has its own price per unit. Please note that if there are “derived” glass units in the list when loading prices, they will lose their connection to the base unit and become independent.

Company colors are used when configuring company products. With their help, you can set the list of available colors. You can also configure pricing depending on the color.

 

 

To configure colors, open the “Company Products” tab, then click on “Color Settings.” In this menu, you can see both your own albums and albums from other companies that have granted you access to their albums. If you are a manufacturer, you can create your own colors and grant access to other companies.

 

To copy an album with colors, go to the Albums page of other companies.

 

 

Select the desired album from the list and click on it.

 

 

You can view the colors on the album page. To display these colors, click the Copy Album button.

 

 

You can copy several colors (select the ones you need from the list) or all of them (by clicking Select All).

 

 

The album now appears in your album lists and is available for selection in collections.

To create a new album to store your colors, follow these steps:

1. Create an album: Click the “Add Album” button.
2. Name the album: Enter the desired name for your new album.
3. Set access: If you want other companies to be able to view and use the colors in this album, enable the “Access for other companies” option.
4. Save changes: Click the “Save” button.

 

 

After creating an album, you can add, edit, and delete colors, change the album name, and search for colors by name or application technology. If necessary, you can delete the album using the corresponding button.

 

To add a new color to your palette, follow these steps:

1. Create a new entry: Click the “Add color” button.
2. Name the color: Enter the desired name for the new color. If your website has multiple language versions, add a translation of the name for each language.
3. Select a technology: From the list of available application technologies, select the one that corresponds to your color.
4. Add an image:
   • Main image: Upload an image that visually represents the color. You can use your own image or select a color from the palette.
