5 questions for Ricardo + 10 rules to confirm
Ricardo, we've been analysing Aronlight's order history and documented 10 product dependency rules — things like "LED strip always needs a power supply" or "Meller body always ships with a trim ring." The goal is to load these into the quoting system so it automatically suggests the right accessories when generating a proposal.
Before we build, we have 5 questions for you below. The first 4 are specific technical gaps. The 5th asks you to scan the full rules list and flag anything wrong. Click any section to expand it.
Our rule says: LED strips always require a 24V DC power supply with 20-25% wattage buffer. This is confirmed for 24V ProStrip variants.
But we found a 230V variant — ILAR-01408 (ProStrip 230V AC). A 230V strip runs directly from mains, so it should NOT need a separate power supply.
Question: Is that correct? Should the rule apply only to 24V strips, and exclude all 230V variants? Are there other 230V strip SKUs we should exclude?
We observed that architectural and retail strip installs (like SMARTEC) include aluminium profiles — roughly 2.5 profile sections per 5m roll. Industrial or concealed runs don't.
Question: When a quote comes in for LED strips, what signals that profiles are needed? Is it something written in the email ("para perfil", "encastrar"), or is it the end-use context (shop vs warehouse), or something else the team just knows from the client?
We have a rule: GU10 lamps going into recessed ceiling holes need an aro bezel (1:1 ratio). Track spotlights and surface fittings don't.
Question: When a quote comes in for GU10 lamps, what tells the team it's a recessed install? Is it always stated explicitly ("encastrar", "teto falso"), or does the team ask, or is it inferred from the building type?
We found one order (EXAKTOR) with 2 panels + 1 surface mount bracket. This gives a 0.5 ratio — meaning 1 bracket for every 2 panels. But that seems unusual and might just be how that specific project was ordered.
Question: In a standard installation, does each 300x600 panel get its own bracket, or do brackets come in pairs (one bracket holds 2 panels)? Same question for 600x600 panels.
We mined 200 confirmed Odoo orders and identified 10 dependency rules. Six of them are HIGH confidence — they appeared consistently in multiple orders or were confirmed by engineering knowledge. Four are MEDIUM confidence — fewer data points or conditional logic we're less sure about.
The rules are listed below. For the HIGH confidence ones especially, please scan and let us know:
— Is the trigger correct? (Right SKU families?)
— Is the dependency correct? (Right accessory?)
— Is the quantity ratio right?
— Is there a case where this rule should NOT fire?
Any correction, however small, is useful before we build this into the system.
