Parts screen (what a part is, every part field, part units and costing — with examples)
Everything a window or door is made of is a part: one row in the parts table, created and changed in OJ Setup → Product Setup → Parts. Every BOM line, cut-list row and price on an order points back to one of these rows. This chapter says what a part holds field by field, […]
Import new parts from a spreadsheet
OJ Setup → Parts can create many new parts at once – a supplier’s catalogue, a new series – from a spreadsheet. Two buttons in the bar under the part details: Download import template (table icon) and Import parts (plus icon). The import only creates parts; it never changes an existing part (use the cost […]
How to set up painted profiles and painting labour (painted stock codes, colour slots, painting station)
Two ways to cost paint without a rate on the colour answer, both in real use: (A) a separate painted profile part with its own, higher cost per foot, whose stock code carries colour slots; and (B) painting labour parts added by rules only when the colour is not the standard one, routed to the […]
How to set up paint cost on colour answers (per face or perimeter)
You can charge paint by the painted face of each profile: put a rate on the colour answer (e.g. $0.321 per inch of face per foot), give each profile its painted face width (e.g. Face Out 7.485″), and OpenJanela adds rate × face to the profile’s cost per foot, then multiplies by the cut length […]
Printing a customer document from the Order List
Customer-facing documents (order acknowledgement, quote, etc.) are printed from the Order List using its Print button. The documents offered are the reports attached to the Order Document Report panel (and related order/quote panels) — so the setup task is to attach the report to that panel once, after which any user can print it. One-time […]
Sealed units with an optional thickness
Some sealed units are sold build-to-suit: the glass make-up is fixed, but the overall thickness changes with what the opening needs. Rather than creating a separate sealed unit for every thickness, mark the sealed unit as having an optional thickness and the system will ask which thickness is required each time it is used. Setting […]
OJ Setup — Product Setup
OJ Setup (Administration) is where product configuration is maintained. Its side menu groups the screens; the PRODUCT SETUP group holds Options, Parts, Matrix, Series, and Sub-Routines. This part covers Series, Sub-Routines, Options, and Matrix. Click the ☰ button at the top of the menu to collapse it to an icon rail when a wide screen […]
Sub-Routines
A sub-routine is a series that is not sold directly but is reused by other series’ configuration: an Options Sub-Routine is attached to options, a Rules Sub-Routine is fired by rules. What, where, who, when, why What The same Series screen opened in sub-routine mode — create/edit reusable option bundles and rule libraries, and mark […]
Series
A series is a product line / extrusion profile system. Pricing, designs, and the rules that pick parts are all defined per series. The Series screen is the administrative home of a series: its identity and defaults on the Header tab, and everything that makes it buildable on nine more tabs. What, where, who, when, […]
Series detail tabs
Each tab has its own local New / Edit / Save / Cancel / Delete buttons that act on that tab’s records only. What, where, who, when, why What The nine configuration tabs behind the Series screen’s Header: Shapes, Openings, Open/Shape pricing, Family, Coupler/Mullion, Designs, RO Adj, Glazing Thickness, Rules — the record sets that […]
