Customer Portal
In the Saninet customer portal you can archive or delete customers.
To delete a customer, you first need to archive the customer by clicking on the ‘archive’ button on the right of the customer in the portal.
The customer is now marked as ‘inactive’. His/her data and design are still available.
To permanently delete a customer, mark the checkbox ‘display inactive customers’ in the customer portal.
Now you will only see inactive / archived customers. You can either reactivate the customer by clicking on the ‘restore customer’ symbol on the right, or you can permanently delete the customer by clicking on the X. This permanently deletes all customer data, including connected designs.
We strongly advise you to not delete customers, but to just archive them, so that you can always access their data.
Designing a bathroom
When the bathroom you are about to design does not have a standard shape, you’d best use the option ‘free shape’. This allows you to determine the positions, corners and lengths of all walls yourself. You can draw a free shape using your mouse, however it is much easier to use your keyboard.
To start drawing, click once with the left mousebutton in the drawing space. Drag the mouse a little in the direction you want the wall to go. Next, use your numeric keypad to enter the length of the wall. Press ‘enter’ to move to the next wall. Press an arrowbutton to determine the direction of the next wall and again enter the length of the wall using the numeric keypad. Press ‘enter’ again to move to the next wall and repeat for the next wall.
To close the last wall, use your mousebutton.
To draw a 45- or 135-degree corners, press two arrow buttons at the same time (in the right direction).
In the video below, we show you how to draw a free form.
General
In the Saninet start screen you can see which Saninet version you’re currently using. You can also find your current version number by clicking on ‘settings’ when you’ve opened a design. Scroll down in the ‘General’ tab to view the current Version number (second last item).
When you shut down your computer, Saninet is automatically updated. So if you don’t have the latest version (you can check under ‘Notifications’ which is the latest version), please restart your computer.
You can also manually update Saninet. In the video below, we show you how to do this.
You can import locally saved bathroom designs, for instance from Saninet Easy, in Saninet. There are two ways to do this.
1) From the customer portal. Select an existing customer or create a new customer. Next, click on ‘import’ (below the customer name). In your File Explorer, search for the design to import and click on ‘open’. The design is added to the customer and you can now open it from the customer portal.
2) When you don’t want to assign the design to a customer immediately, start from the design step in Saninet. In the customer portal, click on ‘skip’. Click on the left icon in the upper right menu (‘File menu’) and choose ‘import’. Search for the design in your File Explorer and click on ‘open’.

Plugins
The Saninte Note plugin allows you to export part lists of all products and parts in your design, including article numbers.
You can export either in .pdf or .csv format. Next, you can import the part list in your ERP-system, to easily create an order for your supplier.
In Saninet, you will find the option to create part lists under the menu-item ‘export’.
First, save a photo of your favourite tile in .jpg or .png format.
Go to the ’tiling’ step in the design process and click on the far right icon in the menu on the left hand side.
Click right on ‘My tiles’ and click on ‘Add folder’. Name your folder.
Click right on the folder you just created and click on ‘Add tile’. Select the image of the tile you saved on your computer.
Name your tile and add its dimensions, desired joint size and joint colour, and click on ‘save’.
Now you can add the tile you just created to your design in the same way you add regular tiles. Just click on the tile and drag it to the desired wall(s).
In the video below, we show you how to add your own tiles to a bathroom design.
