What are Product Components
Components are reusable parts that can be modified and updated across a number of products.
Example: Base 1 Door Cabinet has 2 ends, 1 top, 1 shelf, 1 cabinet door, 2 hinges, 4 legs & a handle. These can all be components as most product cabinets will include these parts. This methodology can be applied across most manufacturing sectors (sub assemblies).
How to Create Product Components
Access your product components from the Catalogue tab in your user menu panel, click on Products and then Components from the tab at the top of your screen.
- Click 'Create'.
- Choose your Type from the dropdown.
- Depending on the type you've selected, the options will change.
- Enter your required quantity.
- Under 'Product Types' choose what this component will apply to.
- If you choose 'Selected' this will generate a new dropdown to choose types.
- Finalise by clicking 'Create'.
