- Why
- A workspace should show the work your company does and nothing else.
- How
- Open the area menu in the header and choose an area.
The areas
| Area | What it is | Present when your workspace has |
|---|---|---|
| Commerce | Your website: the store with its content, orders and enquiries, plus the configurator on your site. | Commerce |
| Design | A design module for each of your product focuses: configure a tool, see it in 3D, price it and draw it. | Design Engineer |
| Wizard | Your wizards, which turn an application into a recommendation from your own range, with the embed for your website. | Wizard |
| Quotes | Every quote, from draft to sent to won or lost, with the quotes your suppliers send back when your workspace has Source. | Design Engineer, Wizard, Commerce and Source |
| Orders | Customer orders, with the purchase orders raised on your suppliers when your workspace has Source. | Design Engineer, Wizard, Commerce and Source |
| Catalogue | The products and designs you sell, with their fields, prices and costs. | Wizard, Commerce, Source and Stock |
| Stock | One true quantity for everything you hold, with every movement recorded. | Stock |
| Customers | The companies you sell to, their contacts, their terms and their special prices. | Every workspace |
| Suppliers | The companies you buy from, their price lists and their lead times. | Source |
| Settings | Your profile, your organisation, your team and everything set once for the workspace. | Every workspace |
Quotes, Orders, Customers and Catalogue are shared: several parts write into them and none is sold as them.
Where a workspace opens
There is no dashboard. A workspace opens on its lead area: Commerce where it has Commerce, Design otherwise, then the first area you have.
Settings
Settings opens from the account menu under your name. In a workspace with a design engine it opens as a panel over the area you are in, so you keep your place. See Settings and roles.
What you do not see
An area whose part is off for your workspace is not in the menu. Your role can narrow the list further: see Users and roles.
