Setup Vertical Cabling

Technical Setup

Enable the cable/pipes application profile

By enabling the de.metas.vertical.cables spring profile following changes will be applied:

• cables/pipes specific quick/batch entry will be used in sales order line

The profile shall be enabled for metasfresh-webui-api service, e.g. add following to your application.properties. In case you are using docker its here: <yourdockerfolder>/webapi/sources/configs/application.properties

just add this to the file:

spring.profiles.active=de.metas.vertical.cables

Alternatively you can set a sysconfig as described here : https://github.com/metasfresh/metasfresh/issues/4601

Functional Setup

Create attribute / label

IMPORTANT: please use the CableLength as value. It is hardcoded in the sales order batch entry.

Define the BOM

Remark:

• BOM Type shall be “Make to Order”
• on cable product we use the CableLength external attribute.

Configure the attribute set for our BOM

Configure the product prices

Remark:

• all components shall be in the price list
• the BOM product shall be in the price list (because of tax category) but it’s prices shall be ZERO.

Pricing conditions based on CableLength attribute

HINT: check product price’s Price Limit. If it’s set it will be enforced no matter of what discount you are setting in pricing conditions.

Configure how an attribute will be rendered in description

e.g. @Label@: @Value@ @UOM@

NOTE: if u will leave DescriptionPattern empty, will work as before, i.e. the attribute’s value will be rendered.

which might look like this:
