The Colors module allows you to create and manage colors used throughout the system. Each color consists of a Name, an optional Description, and a color value.


Colors are defined under Definitions (section SCHEDULING).

  • In case of carpet/velvet, open Yarn related, then Colors.
  • In case of plastics, open Colors.



The table always displays the RGB values of a color, regardless of how the color was defined. The Shade name is assigned automatically defined by the system to provide a textual description of the color.

  1. Click the New color button.
