Product Catalog
Product Catalog

Every grade. Every spec.
Single source of truth.

Master data for every product, grade, BOM, customer specification, and finish type the mill produces. The reference every other module pulls from — Sales for quoting, Production for BOM explosion, Inventory for batch creation, Quality for spec validation.

Material & Grade Master

Every grade, every parameter.

Define every paper grade with its quality parameters (GSM, brightness, moisture, opacity, tensile, COBB), finish types, color, surface treatment, and substitutability rules. Drives quotation pricing, production planning, and quality acceptance.

  • Per-grade quality parameter targets + tolerances
  • Finish types (machine glazed, sized, coated, calendered)
  • Grade substitution rules per customer
  • Pack types + carton specifications
  • Multi-currency cost basis
  • Per-grade default workflows
BOM & Routing
BOM & Routing

BOM & Routing

What goes in. Where it goes.

Bill of Materials and routing definitions per product version. Multi-level BOMs (raw → pulp → paper → finished), alternate components, scrap factors, and machine-specific routing. Engineering change orders flow through approval.

  • Multi-level BOM (RM → pulp → paper → FG)
  • Alternate component lists with priority
  • Scrap factors per stage
  • Machine-specific routing variants
  • Engineering Change Order (ECO) workflow
  • Effective date ranges per BOM version
Customer Specifications
Customer Specifications

Customer Specifications

What this customer wants. Exactly.

Customer-specific specs that override standard grade definitions — tighter tolerances, branded packaging, special finishes. Auto-applied at quotation, production, and quality stages.

  • Per-customer spec overrides on standard grades
  • Branded packaging + label artwork
  • Special tolerance bands
  • Custom packing instructions
  • Approval-gated spec changes
  • Audit history of every spec change

Grade Master

Every paper grade defined with quality parameters, tolerances, finish types, and pack specifications. Drives quotation pricing and production planning in one place.

Drill in

Multi-level BOM

Bill of Materials with parent-child hierarchy down to raw fiber. Engineering changes flow through approval with audit trail; alternate components let you swap when primary is unavailable.

Drill in

Routing Definitions

Machine-specific routing per product version. Same product can route differently on PM-1 vs PM-2 based on capability and current production load.

Drill in

ECO Workflow

Engineering Change Orders captured, reviewed, and approved before BOM changes go live. Effective date ranges ensure in-flight production isn't disrupted.

Drill in

Customer Specs

Override standard grade definitions per customer — tighter tolerances, branded packaging, custom labels. Auto-applied at quote, production, and dispatch.

Drill in

Substitution Rules

When primary material is short, the rule engine knows what's substitutable, at what cost, and which customers accept the change.

Drill in

Product Documents

Spec sheets, datasheets, customer drawings, CoA templates — all linked to the product master and accessible from every module that uses the product.

Drill in

Effective Dating

Every product, BOM, spec change has an effective date range. Historical transactions still see the historical version; new transactions get the current version.

Drill in

Version Control

Full version history per product. Roll back to any historical version with audit trail. Side-by-side compare to see what changed between versions.

Integrations

Works with everything else.

Every Product Catalog action flows into the other modules — no manual data re-entry, no reconciliation pain.
