Parts are the foundation of your system’s product and pricing structure. Each Part represents a raw material - such as paper, vinyl, or metal - that can be combined with modifiers, processes, and machines to create finished Products in CoreBridge. By defining Parts accurately, you enable the system to calculate costs and prices with precision, ensuring consistency across Estimates, Orders, and Production workflows.

Note:  Before creating a Part, it is helpful to first create the Machines, Modifiers, and the Pricing Template that will be associated with this Part.
