Points to Note:

  • There is no limit to how many colours you can have against a style, we can hold up to 99 colours. 
  • If you want to name your colour slightly different you can do so. This is called a Sell Colour in the system. This will be automatically updated in all sales orders, purchase order, and also the warehouse. All that you need to do is put your cursor under the word "Colour 1" for exmaple and change the text to what you want and hit enter on your keyboard once done. This will automatically update all appropriate places.

    The Fabric Colour is the colour given to the fabric. This is mainly used for when you are placing fabric purchase orders in the system - this is the colour that we reference.

Fabric and Trims

The Fabric and Trims function the same as one another in terms of how add in the colours. Open up the 'colours' on the right of the screen and drag and drop these into the appropriate cells. See below example. 

We also have the ability to amend the 'Sell' colour name. In the Fabric example below, i have amended the name of 'Pink' to 'Berry' in the cell above. The purpose of this is, is to change the 'Sell' colour on the product so when sold, you can sell in 'Berry' and keep the original fabric colour as Pink. The Sell colour flows through to your sales order, purchase orders and your website.
