What is Parts Master?
Every Fishbowl part appears here. You control which ones customers see, what they're called, and which configurators they appear in. Fishbowl is never modified β Parts Master is purely a customer-facing overlay.
Recommended Workflow
- Click β¨ AI Classify on the Unclassified tab β Claude reads each part description and fills in category, color, width, and a suggested customer label
- Review each row inline β correct anything AI got wrong directly in the cell
- Check the Configurator boxes for each part (Canvas, TruSim, etc.)
- Set the Customer Label β what customers actually see in the dropdown
- Flip Visible on β the part immediately appears in that configurator
