Item Panel Support For Multiple Catalogs

A new feature of Item Master panel is to support multiple catalogs. In the previous release, we introduced Item Master panel – a very easy way to create new items in the catalog directly from BOM. However, if you work with multiple catalogs, you can now select what catalog to use for a new item master. 

Check out this screenshot.

Check this short video with the demo. 

Conclusion.

Item Master Panel is slowly becoming a place where you can control data about items from catalogs seamlessly without leaving the Bill of Material. Seamless user workflows are a foundation of simplicity. At OpenBOM, we are looking how to provide the easiest and simple solution. New Item Master is one of these workflows.

Let’s get to know each other better. If you live in the Greater Boston area, I invite you for a coffee together (coffee is on me). If not nearby, let’s have a virtual coffee session — I will figure out how to send you a real coffee.
