📕 Setup - Attributes

Last updated: September 23, 2026

Overview

Attributes let you subcategorize Machines or Products. Use them to distinguish machines that share a type but differ in configuration — such as a machine that can be aligned vertically or horizontally, or CNC machines with different axis counts. For Products, Attributes can capture properties such as length, width, or density.
