Products define what you sell
Each product keeps pricing, margin, images, files, category, and order creation context in one repeatable template.
Connected Production Workflow
How It Works
JC’s Product Manager digitizes your production workflow from product definition to customer delivery. Every step is connected, visible, and in sync so nothing falls through the cracks.
Core data model
Components define what must be built
Components break products into build steps or parts with quantities, instructions, custom values, notes, and status.
Materials connect requirements to inventory
Materials represent reusable supplies and link to components so on-hand availability is confirmed before work proceeds.
Orders create the production packet
Orders inherit the product and component structure, then capture customer details, priority, readiness, and progress.
System Architecture

Workflow Overview
From order intake to delivery with real-time visibility.
Order Intake
→
Orders start from manual entry or the optional Etsy integration.
Readiness Check
→
Required components and materials are checked against on-hand inventory.
Kanban Tracking
→
Order components move through Ready to Build, In Production, QA / Assembly, and Completed.
Bambu Hub
→
Provides real-time local printer status, device assignment, camera frames, and branded timelapse capture.
Customer Tracking
Customers see live status, device names, and completed-order timelapse videos without admin access.
Customers can look up approved order details from the public tracking page while the internal team keeps production controls protected behind login.
Order Found: The public tracker confirms the order, stage, customer-safe status, and next step.
Customer Video: Completed orders can include branded timelapse media and device context.
From shop floor to customer story
The public experience is powered by the same operational data used by the shop.
1. Order is created
The production packet is generated from the product, components, custom values, and required materials.
2. Devices do the work
Components move through production and can be assigned to named devices with job context.
3. Video is attached
Captured media and device details can be added to the completed customer-facing order story.
