Catalog Section

OVERVIEW

The Catalog is a repository of Items that can be copied into the current Project. Items can be tagged, so they can easily be searched for by those tags. IE. Hilton Package 1.
If an Item is modified in the Catalog, it will not affect associated Specs and vice versa.

The Catalog, accessible by the entire office, can be used as a tool to create an internal library of frequently used items and products in the form of a skeleton Spec Sheet. A Specification can then be created from a Catalog item as it is saved to a Project.

Once a Spec is created from a Catalog item, the Catalog item will indicate which Projects it was assigned to. Also, in the Spec Schedule, an icon appears to inform the Designer / User that this Spec item was generated from the Catalog.

The Catalog is organized by Categories and Subcategories. Tags can also be applied to an item ie. A Brand, in order to group and filter items and products.

Important Fact: The Categories and Subcategories are created in the Admin section by either a Super Admin or Admin Panel Manager role. Tags can be added by a Designer / User.
