Configuration

General#

Sometimes it might be necessary to configure an article. A concrete example is that a couch can be available in 100 different colours and the customer needs to specify which colour. It can also have different armrests that needs to be chosen, and multiple colours for the pillows etc. All these options (which can be a lot) are called an article configuration. In this service you can configure different types of configuration.
On this page we will describe the different types of configurations; first we describe the LogicTrade configuration, then the external configurations (such as Vadain) and at last we describe the curtain configuration.

LogicTrade#

For the LogicTrade configuration we use LogicTrade as data source.
At the start of the configuration we cache as many data as possible for the given article, this allows the user to configurate the article very quickly.

External#

For external configurators (like Vadain) we use 'external' data sources.
The configuration works exactly the same as LogicTrade configuration on the user side, but internally we have to get the data from the supplier. Because we don't know the dependencys of the configuration we can't cache them, so we have increased loading time on external configurations.

Curtain#

For curtain configurations we don't need a data source. The configuration is more like a calculator. The curtain calculator calculates the needed fabric for the production of a curtain.
