      Create Style Color Library

      Create all your style colors in a library for easy use. No more typos in the color names due to manual typing. Choose colors directly from the drop-down library list.

      Introduction & Best Practice


      The colors overview is a library where you can create the colors that you are going to refer to in the sales and production orders. You will be able to specify more detailed colors about the items in the item details.



      Creating Colors


      1) Choose the sub-tab 'Colors' and click the 'Add style color' button




      2) In the new table row, type in the color name.
      The ID, The ID2 (if you are using this option) and the Pantone fields are optional.

      When adding the Pantone code, a colored swatch is displayed as you can see in the image below.

      NOTE: You cannot create style colors with the same combination of Name and ID. This is to ensure valid data to the ERP solutions.



      3) Click the small green save icon to save

      Changing Color ID's

      If you need to change either the ID or ID2, the system comes with a pop-up.

      This is to inform that the changes made in the IDs will be updated on any sample request where this color is in use. 

      Simply read and click "OK" to proceed. 

      Renaming Colors 

      You can change the name of your colors whenever necessary. Simply mouse over the color name and click the blue edit icon - or double-click on the table row.

      When in edit mode, type in the new name and click the small green icon to save your changes.

      Adding a Color Note

      For each Color you can add a Color Note - here you can type in extra info - if you need it.

      The Color Note will be exported when you export to XML or make an FTP export, but it will not be displayed on the platform. 



      Deactivate a Color

      To do so, select the color you want to deactivate and untoggle the slider in the column 'ACTIVE'.

      Integration with Your ERP

      If you are going to make integration with an ERP provider, make sure that the IDs and style colors have the same structure as the ERP.

      For some ERP systems, it is a requirement that the ID have the same amount of digits on all colors. 

      Unsure what rules to follow? 
      - Please reach out to your ERP provider for guidance.
