# Item Master

Dive into the core of our SAAS software with this detailed exploration of the Item Master feature.

## What is Item Master?

**Item Master** serves as a comprehensive repository for item details. An "Item" here is uniquely defined by a specific code.

{% hint style="info" %}

{% endhint %}

**Examples:**

* `SOFA-2SEATER-BED`
* `SOFA-2SEATER-NOBED`
* More detailed: `SOFA-2SEATER-BED/FABRIC-RED74`

The flexibility of Item Master allows for an unlimited number of entries, each tailored to meet specific needs.

## What Information Can Be Added to the Item Master?

The table below outlines the fields available in the Item Master, along with example entries, and whether these fields support API and Embed functionalities.

{% hint style="info" %}
Note\*:\* The values are primarily in Metric units but can be conceptualized in Imperial units. Similarly, delivery days can be considered in hours, weeks, or months.
{% endhint %}

| Field                 | Example Entry    | API | Embed |
| --------------------- | ---------------- | --- | ----- |
| ITEM MASTER CODE      | SOFA-2SEATER-BED | ✅   | ✅     |
| DELIVERY TIME \[DAYS] | 25               | ✅   | ✅     |
| M3                    | 0.60             | ✅   | ✅     |
| COMMERCE ID           | 42853746589754   | ✅   | ✅     |
| WIDTH \[CM]           | 170              | ✅   | ✅     |
| HEIGHT \[CM]          | 75               | ✅   | ✅     |
| DEPTH \[CM]           | 80               | ✅   | ✅     |
| WEIGHT \[KG]          | 85               | ✅   | ✅     |

**🆕 Commerce ID** is a new field introduced to support dynamic product bundles. It stores external e-commerce resource IDs (such as Shopify variant IDs) that can be used to dynamically map variants.

## Example Use Cases

### Delivery Information

* The standard UI dynamically calculates delivery information in working days, referencing the "Delivery information from Item Master" checkbox in the product pricing and codes tab.
* It aggregates the longest lead-time from each item master for the configured product and displays this on the configurator's finish screen.

![Delivery Calculated based on Item Master](https://621103948-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FsqWfi8ifBhTdkvf1vOlY%2Fuploads%2Fdxf1x2CrjuFQ9CmZIMTE%2Fitem-master-article_7xwlmk.png?alt=media)

### Weights

* The configurator always relays weight information to the front end for potential use in custom UIs.
* We also pass the weights to the Shopify created Products see Shopify App - Admin Settings

**Example:** Mimeeq integrates weight data into Shopify cart products. This integration sums the weights of all item codes and attaches it to the configured product in Shopify.

## **Modular Products:** In modular configurations, the weights of individual components are combined to calculate the total product weight. For example, the weight for three center pieces and one corner unit is calculated by tripling the weight of a center piece and adding the weight of the corner unit.

### Upcoming Features:

Mimeeq is developing custom fields for Item Master, enhancing dynamic data referencing and consumption. Stay tuned for this feature, and feel free to contact us with feedback or additional use case suggestions.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.mimeeq.com/pricing-and-codes/pricing-setup/item-master.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
