More estimate pdf options + added drawings:
We have created three pdfs options to choose from and added drawings to the pdfs. The pdf options include:
Consumer-facing (A simplified version without the price per sq foot)
Trade professionals and/or fabricators/installers-facing (Provides full details with retail pricing)
Fabricator/installer-facing (Provides wholesale pricing)
Users can decide which pdf they choose to download on the Project Summary screen under “More actions”. These options are also available anywhere a previous “Download pdf” option existed.
2. Messaging to trade professional when a project is outside a zipcode
When a locked trade professional has a project in a zip code that their fabricator doesn’t service, we need to provide options so it’s not a dead end for the trade professional. We’ve added the following messaging in these scenarios:
“Please confirm with the fabricator if they are able/willing to service this zip code”
If there are no available fabricators (non-locked) we will display this message:
”Contact your Market Rep to request additional fabricator options that service this project area.”

The edge charge for an Arc radius/length has been added to the total calculation for a countertop.
Increased the measurement labels on the order summary page to be larger so they’re more visible.
Added the Trade Professional that created the estimate to the contact information on the Fabricator's dashboard.
When a user clicks “Edit Room” on the Project Summary page, they are now taken back to the Estimator not the ‘Choose your design’ page.

Enhanced Design Grouping: Fabricators/Installers can now strategically categorize their designs into Group A (high-volume) and Group B (low-volume), enabling optimized pricing strategies and streamlined workflows. They can also choose to offer one price group or two, providing greater flexibility in their pricing models.
Expanded Product Offerings: We've expanded our design offerings to include a 1CM option for select designs, catering to a wider range of customer preferences. By default, the 1CM option will utilize the Fabricator's existing 2CM pricing for a seamless transition. However, Fabricators can easily adjust this default pricing as needed.
Streamlined Onboarding with "Save as You Go": We understand that onboarding can be a multi-step process. To enhance convenience, we've introduced a "Save as You Go" feature, allowing Fabricators to complete onboarding at their own pace, ensuring a smooth and efficient experience.
Empowered Pricing Control: Fabricators now have the ability to define pricing by series for finishes with an upcharge (Matte, Satin, and Satin Ridge), providing greater granularity and control over their pricing strategies.
