Parts Dashboard’s primary purpose is to serve as a catalog for all of your project, design, manufacturing, and quality information.
- Create content: all the different things that you want to catalog
- Store files: use cloud or local drives to keep all of the files for your things
- Build connections: join together the different things you’ve cataloged so that you can see relationships
There are three general kinds of content:
- Companies
- People
- Items
You can create these things in any order, but when you’re first starting out getting the application set up it’s best to create new content in the order listed above (Companies > People > Items). This ensures that as you create something that relies on something else, it’s already done.
