Garments and variants
A garment is a style — “AS Colour Staple Tee”. A variant is one buyable version of it: style code, colour, size. Quote lines point at variants, which is why a quote can price a mixed size run correctly. Variants sharing a style code are grouped, so you pick the style once and then choose colours and sizes.Supplier catalogues
Connecting a garment supplier pulls their catalogue in with live wholesale pricing and stock levels. That means:- quoting uses today’s cost, not a spreadsheet from last quarter
- you can see whether stock exists before you promise a lead time
- new styles appear without anyone re-keying them
