Sale Semaphore
This module adds a commercial semaphore to help sales teams assess whether a quoted price stays within the discount policy defined for a product or product category.
For each product you can define three discount thresholds, expressed as a percentage over the public sale price:
Green: price is within the preferred commercial margin.
Yellow: price is still acceptable, but already close to the limit.
Red: price is below the warning threshold and should be reviewed.
The semaphore is displayed directly on sales order lines and propagated to customer invoice lines and reporting models, so the same visual indicator is available during the full sales flow.
When no product-specific configuration exists, the module can also reuse the thresholds defined on the product category.
Table of contents
Usage
To use this module:
Go to Sales > Products > Products and open a product.
In the Sales tab, enable Semaphore.
Define the allowed discount percentages for the three thresholds:
Discount Success: upper band for a green result.
Discount Warning: upper band for a yellow result.
Discount Danger: final accepted limit.
Optionally, configure the same values on the product category to provide default thresholds for all products in that category.
Once configured, the semaphore is evaluated automatically on each sales order line according to the effective unit price:
Green when the price stays above the success threshold.
Yellow when the price falls below the success threshold but remains above the warning threshold.
Red when the price falls below the warning threshold.
Additional behavior:
The line is highlighted when the price goes below the danger threshold.
The semaphore value is copied to invoice lines.
Non-manager users are prevented from confirming or updating confirmed sales orders when the effective price is below both the configured semaphore limit and the applicable pricelist price.
Product-level settings take precedence over category-level settings.
Known issues / Roadmap
Propagate category semaphore recursively to child categories
Use pricelist price as the base for calculations
