Setting up Materials is a little different to the other types of inventory items.

There is a benefit to utilising the material list as they can be updated easily in the order process, and a few reporting tools link to the material list, such as this one - If you are logged in to BUZ, click here.

Material lists have three fields, which are customisable so that you can change the name of the type of question, but as a default

• Material (Brand or style)

• Material type and

• Colour

You can also use inventory items to help with reporting.

BUZ has a large variety of choices for reports, but there are a few things that don't necessarily get captured simply because it inst always required.

They are adding an inventory item to a product as a way to create a report. A lot of questions a salesperson asks do not require its report, and BUZ has a few dedicated Reports built-in, but they are generally for Fabrics and materials.

If you want a report on how many motors or tracks are sold, you need to create an inventory item so BUZ can calculate something.
