Catalogs are a way to add additional items to your BOM, such as hangers, tools, or extra fittings. The catalog page is accessible to users who have the service access level. For more information on catalogs, click here: Vimeo Video

There are two types of catalogs in Field Orderz.

  1. Catalogs created from .itm services- These can be used with the MAJ creation tools
