Start from the camera schedule and reflected scope
An installer-ready order starts with a camera schedule, not a generic kit quantity. Give every planned view a name, purpose, mounting surface, approximate cable route, lighting condition, and selected model. Mark alternates only when the customer has approved the performance and appearance tradeoff.
