How CBU units quote a flat SKU price with exclusions

Learn how a CBU SKU is quoted at its flat catalog price and how its exclusion list bills selected categories on top.

1. A furniture SKU flagged CBU (completely built unit) is quoted at its flat catalog price: the internal breakdown is suppressed (second-level rows are not even populated when the exclusion list is empty) and constituent prices are zeroed out, so changing a finish or adding a shelf will NOT move the price — that is by design, not a bug.

2. The SKU can carry an exclusion list of categories (e.g. shutters/drawer fascias, handles, exposed panels, end panels, or any category type) that are carved OUT of the flat price: those items appear as second-level entries and are billed in addition to the CBU price.

3. So 'why are handles charged on top of the cabinet price' means handles are in that SKU's CBU exclusion list.

4. Note this is a different feature from the quotation-level 'exclude category from quotation': the quotation-level exclusion REMOVES items and their money entirely, while the CBU exclusion list ADDS items on top of a flat price.

5. Symptoms map cleanly: price frozen against design edits = CBU flat price; unexpected extra lines under a fixed-price unit = CBU exclusions.
