What the Data for This Category Looks Like

Paint and ink industry due diligence data primarily comes from public reports released by the China National Coatings Industry Association, import and export data from the General Administration of Customs of China, public quotation systems of raw material suppliers, corporate environmental assessment reports and annual report documents. Update cycles are tiered: raw material unit prices are updated daily, industry supply and demand reports are released quarterly, corporate compliance inspection documents are updated alongside project milestones, and import and export data is updated monthly. A single due diligence document includes supplier qualification documents, production process parameter tables, raw material supply chain details, and compliance inspection data attachments. Core fields include raw material unit price (unit: yuan per kilogram), VOC emission limits (unit: mg/m³), and production capacity (unit: tons per year).

Constraints on Multi-turn Dialogue and Prompting

The tiered update cadence of data sources demands clear differentiation of data timeliness in multi-turn dialogue. Prompts must specify priority access to data sources matching their respective update cycles. Documents include multiple types of attachments and structured tables. Multi-turn dialogue must retain key parameters such as the corporate entity and report cycle from context to avoid cross-turn context loss. Fields use multiple units. Prompts must establish unified unit conversion rules to prevent unit confusion during dialogue. Data sources are dispersed across platforms. Multi-turn dialogue must support triggering calls to different data sources. Trigger logic for data source calls must be preset in prompts.

Configuration Settings

Configuration ItemRecommended Value RangeRationale
maxContext8000–12000 charactersPaint and ink due diligence documents include multiple attachments and structured tables. Longer context must retain corporate entities and parameters across multi-turn dialogue
recallTopKTop 8–12 resultsMust cover recall snippets for the three core fields: raw material unit price, compliance inspection, and production capacity
similarityThreshold0.75–0.85Avoid recalling irrelevant cross-company data while matching specialized terminology for specific product segments
toolCallTimeout600 secondsSome raw material price data sources require cross-platform retrieval. Sufficient response time must be reserved for longer processing delays
fileParseChunkSize1000–1500 charactersPaint and ink documents include long process tables and parameter details. Chunking must preserve field integrity
exportContextEnabledEnabledDue diligence reports must retain the derivation process of multi-turn dialogue to meet compliance traceability requirements

The parameter values provided on this page are common starting points for configuration setup. Actual values are affected by material form, data volume, and business rules. Specific issues require individual analysis. It is recommended to test on your own samples before finalizing settings.

Three Common Configuration Errors

  • Issue: After calling the chart tool to generate a paint raw material price trend chart, the returned result is empty or has no image link. Cause: The prompt does not specify the specific data source field the chart must bind to, or the minimum number of data entries required by the chartDataMinCount parameter is not configured. This leads to insufficient structured price data being extracted to generate the chart.
  • Issue: Response latency increases significantly after multiple consecutive dialogue turns, triggering a requestTimeout error. Cause: The context length limit for maxContext is not set, or the number of recalled results for recallTopK is not reduced. This causes each dialogue to load an excessive number of due diligence document fragments and cross-data source calls.
  • Issue: The dialog box does not automatically trigger an initial question after the workflow starts. Interaction must be manually initiated to begin. Cause: The autoStartChat configuration item is not enabled, or the trigger condition for the initial prompt is not bound in the workflow node. This causes the dialogue startup logic to fail to activate.

How to Verify Correct Configuration

  • Initiate a single-turn test query. Enter a request for the raw material unit price of a specified paint enterprise. Verify that the returned result includes the correct field units and data update time, and confirm that context parameters are not lost.
  • Trigger a chart tool call. Enter an instruction to generate a trend chart for a specified raw material. Verify that structured data is extracted in the tool call logs, and that no data missing errors are present.
  • Check the workflow node configuration. Confirm that automatic question-related switches are enabled. Verify that the dialog box automatically triggers a preset question after the workflow starts.
  • Initiate multiple consecutive dialogue turns. Verify that the dialogue content export function normally generates a file containing all interaction records, confirming that the compliance traceability configuration is active.
