Frontu simplifies the process of adding materials to work orders. By clicking the "Add" button, users can choose from a dropdown list of standard materials already created in the system's backend environment. Additionally, users can create and add new non-standard materials to capture specific requirements. Once all the necessary information is filled out, users can save the material by clicking either the "Save" or "Save and add" button, enabling a smooth workflow. All added materials will be visible in the "Materials" tab, providing a centralized view of the materials associated with the work order.

If the desired material is not listed in the dropdown, Frontu allows users to create new materials on the fly. By simply entering the material name and clicking the "Create new using search text" button, users can add non-standard materials to the work order. After creation, users are prompted to enter relevant information for the material, and upon saving, the material is successfully added to the work order.

Frontu introduces a convenient feature that allows users to scan material's NFC/QR codes. This feature automates the entry of materials, reducing manual input and potential errors. By scanning the code, the system automatically populates the corresponding material information, saving time and ensuring accurate data capture.

Frontu's intuitive interface enables users to easily edit and modify material information. By clicking on an already added material in the list, users can access the "Edit material" window and make necessary changes. Additionally, if a material needs to be removed from the list, users can simply click the recycle bin icon located in the upper-right corner of the "Edit material" window to delete the material.

In the administrator environment, suggested materials may include a label "Missing info," indicating that users must provide material units to proceed. A work order cannot be completed without entering the suggested material quantity. By clicking on a suggested material, user can prefill the suggested amount but is also able to enter the actual values for accurate tracking. It's important to note that the suggested label will be visible within the material but will not appear elsewhere, such as in the PDF act.

User will be able to see suggested amount before starting the work order. The only thing he needs to do, is go to materials tab and check how many units is showing under "Missing info" label.

Frontu offers a useful feature called "Material post," which allows employees to enter the cost of purchased materials and the corresponding invoice number. This information serves as valuable data for accounting purposes, facilitating accurate cost tracking and financial reporting.
