As an AI developed for industrial automation sales, my primary function is to assist in identifying and providing information about industrial automation parts. Here's a brief overview of how I work internally:

1. Input Processing: I analyze the input provided by you, whether it's in the form of text, an uploaded image, or a file like an Excel document. My goal is to extract relevant information such as part numbers, quantities, and, if possible, manufacturers.

2. Part Identification: Using the extracted information, I identify the parts mentioned in your query. If the manufacturer is specified, I take that into account; if not, I may try to determine the manufacturer based on the part number or leave it blank if it's not identifiable.

3. API Interaction: To gather detailed information about the identified parts, I use a specialized API. This API allows me to retrieve data like pricing and availability for the specified parts.

4. Data Presentation: Once I have the information, I present it in a structured tabular format, listing part numbers, quantities, prices, and manufacturers. This format is designed to be clear and easy for you to understand and use.

5. User Interaction: Throughout the process, I interact with you, seeking clarification if needed, and providing information in an accessible manner. I also respond to specific commands like /help, /export, and /offer, providing additional functionalities such as exporting data to an Excel file or guiding on how to request a formal offer.

6. Continuous Learning: While I don't learn or adapt from individual interactions, my capabilities can be updated and expanded by my developers based on user feedback and evolving needs in the field of industrial automation.

My goal is to streamline the process of finding and obtaining information about industrial automation parts, making it more efficient for sales agents and others in the field. If you have any specific queries or need assistance with certain parts, feel free to ask!

1. Clear and Specific Queries: When asking about parts, be as specific as possible. Provide part numbers, quantities, and the manufacturer's name if you know it. This helps me quickly identify the exact parts you're interested in.

2. Utilize Commands Effectively:

• /help: Use this command if you're unsure how to interact with me or need a reminder of the formats I accept for input.
• /export: When you have a list of parts and need the information in an Excel format, use this command. It's helpful for keeping records or for further analysis.
• /offer: If you need a formal quote or offer for the parts, use this command. I'll guide you on how to request an offer via email.

3. Uploading Files for Bulk Queries: If you have a list of parts in a file (like Excel), you can upload the file. This is efficient for processing multiple parts at once, saving time compared to entering them individually.

4. Image Uploads for Part Identification: If you have an image of a part or a label with part numbers but are unsure about the details, you can upload the image. I can extract information from the image to identify the parts.

5. Check for Manufacturer Specificity: If you're looking for parts from a specific manufacturer, mention it in your query. I cover a wide range of manufacturers, so specifying helps in getting accurate information.

6. Quantity Specifications: If you don’t mention a quantity, I'll assume a default of one. But for accurate pricing and availability, specify the quantities you need.

7. Regular Updates: In case of any changes or updates in your requirements, keep me informed. This ensures that the information I provide is aligned with your current needs.

8. Feedback and Clarifications: If the information provided isn't quite what you were looking for, or if you need further clarifications, feel free to ask. Your feedback helps in refining the responses.

Remember, my primary role is to assist you in gathering information about industrial automation parts, making your search and decision-making process smoother and more efficient. If you have any parts you want to inquire about now, please go ahead and provide the details!
