Core concepts

The hierarchy: Project → Phase → Building → Unit

Every development in Construvex is described with the same four-level structure:

• A project is one development, such as a township or a residential scheme.
• A phase is a stage of that project. In India, each phase is usually its own RERA registration, with its own RERA number and its own filings. Construvex treats phases as first-class so your compliance lines up with reality.
• A building is a tower or block within a phase.
• A unit is an individual flat, shop, or office. Units are what you sell, track progress on, and collect payments against.

A worked example

Say you're building Green Meadows:

• Project: Green Meadows
  • Phase 1 (RERA-registered separately) → Tower A → Units A-101, A-102, …
  • Phase 2 (its own RERA registration) → Tower B, Tower C → their units

Because progress, sales, and payments all attach at the unit level and roll up through building → phase → project, you can see the status of a single flat or the whole development without re-entering anything.

Tip: Set up phases to match your actual RERA registrations. That one decision keeps your RERA reporting aligned for the rest of the project.

Customers and deals

Alongside the physical hierarchy, Construvex tracks the sales side:

• A customer is a buyer, or a prospective buyer, and their details.
• A deal is a sales opportunity that moves from lead → deal → booking. When a deal becomes a booking, it's tied to a specific unit.

Once a unit is booked, its payment plan and collection schedule follow from there. See the Sales & CRM guide and the Payments & collections guide.

How it all connects

• Construction progress is recorded against units and buildings, and aggregates up the hierarchy. See the Construction progress guide.
• Payment schedules are driven by construction milestones, so collections track real work on the ground.
• RERA compliance (categories and scope weights) reads from the same structure, so nothing is tallied twice. See the RERA compliance guide.
• Roles & permissions control who can see and do what across all of the above. See Roles & permissions.

Everything in Construvex points back to this hierarchy, which is why it's worth setting up carefully before you start entering sales or progress against it.
