Workflows

Now that you have some data in the site, start reviewing the workflow guides below. We would suggest starting with the Creating Items, BOM and Routing Guide as all of your processes start with the BOM.

Once you are comfortable, review the various module workflows to get familiar with taking an order from quote to invoice.
