Choose CBU or constituent pricing for a composite SKU

Decide whether a composite SKU quotes a flat built-unit price or a price summed from its panels, hardware and finishes.

1. Composite SKUs (cabinets, corner units, drawer systems, user elements) have a pricing-source switch on the default price: 'Price as Completely Built Unit' (cbu=true — the SKU's own price is used) versus 'Priced from constituent elements' (cbu=false — the quotation sums the prices of the panels, hardware and finishes inside). The exclusion list ('Exclude these from pricing', constituent categories to leave out: shutter/drawer fascia, handles, appliances, baskets, accessories, etc.) belongs to completely-built-unit pricing: it is offered on the default price once 'Price as Completely built unit' is chosen, not with 'Priced from constituent elements'. Under Advanced Pricing Options an 'Override margin and tax of constituents' checkbox (override_margin) applies the SKU-level tax/margin/discount over the constituent totals. Shutter hardware instead uses pricing_from with three modes: constituents, design, design_and_constituents. Silent rule verified in the backend: cbu, pricing_from, exclusion_list and override_margin are only editable on the DEFAULT price — the update endpoint deliberately ignores them at sales-channel level and instead propagates default-price changes of these fields to every sales-channel price row of that SKU, so they are always uniform across channels and price types. Constituent-based pricing options are gated behind the paid Advanced Pricing add-on in the admin portal; without it the toggle is disabled with a tooltip to contact customer success.

2. For accurate costing, price composite SKUs from their constituent elements (the default) rather than as a Completely Built Unit.

3. CBU quotes a flat SKU price and suppresses the internal breakdown, so design changes do not move the price.

4. For non-standard cabinets, costing can be done either by raw-material-based pricing or by marking the cabinet as a completely built unit (CBU).

5. For a completely built unit (CBU), the cost is inclusive of all elements such as hinges, channels and finishes. Handles are the exception while the quotation's Show on Top settings include 'Handle (Hardware)' (the default): the CBU's handles are then quoted as handle rows on top of its price; with it unticked they are inside the CBU's price.

6. Pricing a unit from its constituent elements means entering a separate price for every material used — laminates/finishes, hardware, ply and edge bands — so setup is heavier than the flat CBU method, but the resulting cost is built up component by component.
