What is Material module?

The Material module is used to define the material used in the composition of an item, such as cotton, polyester, etc. This is particularly useful for businesses dealing in apparel, where material composition significantly influences product quality and customer preferences.

Within the item details, users can articulate the material makeup. It provides a streamlined mechanism for specifying the material composition of each item, enabling businesses to categorize and manage their inventory with precision.

Benefits of defining Materials

• Enhanced Product Differentiation: The ability to specify material composition allows businesses to differentiate their products based on quality, comfort, and performance attributes. For instance, a shirt made from 100% cotton may appeal to customers seeking breathability and softness, while a polyester blend might offer durability and wrinkle resistance.

• Improved Customer Transparency: By disclosing material composition through the Material module, businesses empower customers to make informed purchasing decisions. Customers can assess the suitability of an item based on their preferences, such as fabric type, texture, or care requirements. This transparency fosters goodwill and loyalty by aligning product offerings with customer expectations.

• Accurate Inventory Management: Defining item material facilitates accurate inventory management by providing insights into material usage across various items. Businesses can track material consumption, replenish stock levels, and forecast demand more effectively.

• Quality Control: Ensures the materials procured and used in production meet predefined quality standards, reducing waste and ensuring end-product quality.
