Adding the suborganizations module allows you to divide your configurators main organization into separate smaller organizations. Effectively: suborganizations.
As the main organization, you manage all aspects of a suborganization. This includes:
You manage what suborganizations can- or cannot sell.
You do not only determine which products a suborganization may sell, but also which options are possible for every product. For instance: some machines are not suitable for the American market. As such, your American dealer will not be able to configure these machines. But the machines they do sell should of course comply with US safety regulations. Which is why your American dealer is able to choose different options than your dealers situated in Germany.
Additionally, you manage what margins and purchase discounts are applied to your products. You can do this on both the organization level and the product- or part level. For example, you agreed on a 25 percent discount on your entire productr ange with dealer A. On top of that, dealer B gets discounts for specific products or specific parts of those products, and dealer C purchases these products for the gross price and sells them with a predefined markup.
Each suborganization gets their own look and feel, so that its users log into a familiar environment. Some of the different options are:
