Part Numbers

A Part Number is an alphanumeric text identifier for an item which may be entered on Quotes, Sales Orders, and so on. It designates a product or component. They are generally associated with a certain Customer, but can be created without one.

Part Statuses and Designations

Active parts are instances of Part Numbers that are on a Work Order and being worked on. They may be anywhere in a Process, from Receiving to Invoicing.

Parts become Complete when work has finished; they have been shipped or picked up, and the Customer has been invoiced. Parts may be completed from the Work Order page, or from the Invoicing Dashboard after the Parts have been invoiced.

Staged Parts is a name used for Parts which are on a Sales Order, but haven't been received and/or aren't on a Work Order.
