+NEEDREVIEW ====== colors ======
+Colors are no longer fixed in groups. Each color that is available will be set as a single color with all it's properties as an **option**.
+Example:
+option 1: brown 25% \\
+option 2: brown 50% \\
+option 3: brown 75% \\
+option 4: brown 50-0% \\
+option 5: brown 75-25% \\
+option 6: brown 90-30% \\
+To keep the options still clearly, options that belong to the same sort of option can be grouped together to be displayed as a group. Therefore the new system **optionGroup** (see [[en:lenscatalog:version070000:usage:productgroupnames|usage -> optionGroupNames]]) has been created. It is linked to the respective option via an ID.
+Example:
+optiongroup 1: plain colours -> ID 123 \\
+optiongroup 1: gradient colours -> ID 345
+option 1: brown 25% -> ID 123 \\
+option 2: brown 50% -> ID 123 \\
+option 3: brown 75% -> ID 123 \\
+option 4: brown 50-0% -> ID 345 \\
+option 5: brown 75-25% -> ID 345 \\
+option 6: brown 90-30% -> ID 345
+ISNEW ==== tint to sample ====
+B2BCatalog will also allow electronic orders for different tint to sample processes. In most cases there are 3 different processes:
+== 1) deviation in absoprtion of an existing standard color ==
+An Option e.g. 999 "deviating standard color" must be created with the following setup:\\
+option -> coatingtypes -> color -> [[en:lenscatalog:version070000:simpletypes:b2bcatalogcolortypes|catalogcolortype]]: individual_(choose the appropriate color type) \\
+The absoption for this color 999 should be set with the min. and the max. absoprtion that is technically feasible  and a step 1. By that an indivual absorption level can be set by the customer.
+{{en:lenscatalog:version070000:images:b2bcatalogcolorabsorption.png?nolink|B2BCatalogColorAbsorption}}
+To define the colortone this option 999 should be used with the possible standard colors in the combinations as a mandatory combination. The individual absoprtion set by the customer would then replace the standard color absorption.
+Example:
+option 1: Brown 70% + option 999: deviating standard color with ind. absorption 45% results in Brown 45%.
+== 2) order of an external color without a physical sample ==
+If external colors can be ordered without the need of a physical sample for production, the following process is recommended:
+An Option e.g. 888 "external color" must be created with the following setup:\\
+option -> coatingtypes -> color -> [[en:lenscatalog:version070000:simpletypes:b2bcatalogcolortypes|catalogcolortype]]: individual_(choose the appropriate color type) \\
+The absorption for this color 888 should be set with the min. and the max. absoprtion that is technically feasible and a step 1. By that an indivual absorption level can be set by the customer.
+{{en:lenscatalog:version070000:images:b2bcatalogcolorabsorption.png?nolink|B2BCatalogColorAbsorption}}
+Additionally the orderoption COLOR_NAME should be added as mandatory to force the customer to describe the desired color.
+Example:
+option 888: "external color" with ind. absorption of 70% and the COLOR_NAME "Ferrari-Red" results in Ferrari Red 70%
+== 3) order of a color that requires a physical sample (real lens or other colored item) ==
+If an order needs a physical sample to be produced, the following process is recommended:
+An Option e.g. 777 "tint to sample" must be created with the following setup:\\
+option -> coatingtypes -> color -> [[en:lenscatalog:version070000:simpletypes:b2bcatalogcolortypes|catalogcolortype]]: sample_(choose the appropriate color type) \\
+Optionally this option can be combined with an absorption range as described above to force the entry of a desired absorption level and with the orderoption COLOR_NAME to force the entry of a descriptive text.
+Like this the order can already be processed and can be combined with the physical sample, send by the customer at a later stage of the production.
