Modules:Margin Indicator/User Guide

Introduction

The purpose of this project is to implement a visual indicator that helps to understand how far the final price is comparing with its cost. These visual indicators are ranges that can be configured

The formula is a Commercial margin : (priceSell - cost)/priceSell*100

The cost of the product will depend on how the costing rules are configured in the backend

Configuration

In order to configure the ranges used for the visual indicators go to:

• Organization window
• In More Information section there are three new fields:
  • Green Margin Up To: Typical configuration would be 100.
  • Orange Margin Up To: For example 30
  • Red Margin Up To: For example 7

Based on the above formula this configuration would mean:

• If the result is 40% then a green visual indicator will be present in the line
• If the result is 25% then an orange visual indicator will present in the line
• If the result is below 7 then a red visual indicator will present in the line
