Profile prices

From Opera Wiki

Profile Price Panel

N.B: To access this panel in Opera Order Management: from the Archives menu, select the Profiles button and, in the next panel, click the button

NOTE:
If the option series price is enabled in the Systems Archive, it will not be possible to modify prices from the Profiles Archive. When purchasing by weight, the price of a profile generally depends on the price of the series it belongs to; therefore, normally, no price is assigned to the profile but to the series it is part of.

Below is a description of the main fields in this window:

• Finish: Indicates the type of finish to which the price refers. Finish means the aluminum coloring technique. If the series prices are based on finish without color distinction (e.g. Raw, Anodized, Electrocolored, etc.), then the price must be assigned “by finish”: choose the finish from the list and enter the price in the Price field. Conversely, if prices vary by color while being produced with the same finish (e.g. White paint, Red paint, Green paint, Silver anodized, Bronze anodized, etc.), leave the Finish field empty and assign the price “by coloring”: then use the Col. int./Col. ext. fields to select the color from the list and enter the price in the Price field.

Col. int. and Col. ext. (Internal and external coloring): Indicate the color to which the price refers. Price type: Indicates the unit of measurement on which the price is based. Eight types are explained below:

series price: the profile adopts the price of the series it belongs to.

finished weight: the profile is purchased by weight, including finish.

raw weight: the profile is purchased by weight, raw.

finished length: the profile is purchased by length, including finish.

raw length: the profile is purchased by length, raw.

per m²: the profile is purchased per square meter.

per piece: the profile is purchased in bars.

component price: the final price of the profile is the sum of the prices of each of its components (only applies to composite profiles).

per m³: the profile is purchased per cubic meter.

• raw per piece: the profile is purchased per cubic meter.

• From, to: Minimum and maximum purchase quantity corresponding to the indicated price. This allows managing cases where the supplier grants better pricing as quantity increases. During order management, the program will automatically choose the best price based on the required quantity, but only if the button is activated.

• Supplier: The supplier from whom you purchase the material at the indicated price. You can thus associate different suppliers with different rates. In the Order Material panel, you can select the desired supplier, which will also adjust the purchase price.

• Delivery time: The typical time the supplier needs to deliver the ordered material.
• Finish only: Indicates that the mentioned price corresponds only to the specified finish. To obtain the final purchase price, the raw price must also be specified. Thus, when calculating the profile cost, the program adds the raw price and the finish price. This method is practical because any future variation will only require modifying the raw price.

• Code: Code assigned to the profile according to the color defined in the Col. int. and Col. ext. fields; the profile code will be replaced by the one entered here. Some suppliers redefine the code with each color or price change. For example, for profile M999, you could have W700999 for white, W800999 for red, W900999 for green, etc.

• Suffix: The text entered in the Code field will be added to the actual accessory code without replacing it. Some suppliers add a suffix to indicate the color: if “700” means white, “800” red, “900” green, then M999700 will be M999 in white, M999800 in red, M999900 in green, etc.

• Finish only: If this box is checked, the program will only consider the finish price of the profile.
• Bar length (Length of bar): The program will use the different bar lengths provided by the production line and configured in the program.
• Min. waste: The program calculates the portion of the bar considered waste, varying by profile finish.
• Qty per package: Indicates the number of accessories contained in one package.
• Margin class: Allows associating a different margin percentage to various production costs. For usage, see the section margin classes.
• Price #1 to #8: Purchase prices excluding taxes (VAT or others).
• % Discount: Possible discount percentage granted by the supplier.
• Series: Price possibly assigned to the entire series.
• As of: Date of the last price update.

In the Colorings section, the colorings associated with the profile appear, filtered by Finish.
