Keep the right parts with the right order.
Connect catalogue items, customer pricing and stock availability to sales and purchasing. Track serials and replenishment alongside the orders that depend on them.
Can we supply the specified part on time?
Check the exact product, available quantity and supplier lead time before confirming. Keep the customer’s requirements with the order.
- Catalogues of tens of thousands of lines, searchable by code, description or manufacturer part number
- Supplier price files imported on a schedule, with changes shown before they apply
- Serial numbers tracked from goods in, through dispatch, to returns
- Manufacturer and alternative part numbers kept on the same product
- Kits and made-up assemblies sold as a single line
- Margin protected when costs change, with the affected quotes flagged

Follow the records behind an everyday question, then review the next step with your team.
Do we have the specified product available?
Review the exact catalogue item and customer requirement.
Trade supplyIllustrative records| Product | On hand | Committed | Available |
|---|---|---|---|
| 20 A breaker | 60 | 35 | 25 |
| 32 A breaker | 40 | 10 | 30 |
Twenty-five of the specified 20 A breakers are available.
A different specification is not an automatic substitute. Confirm a suitable alternative or replenishment with the customer.
What it doesn't change.
This industry configuration brings together relevant Cobalt workflows. It is not a separate product or a separate set of books. The six onboarding categories are listed on the What’s included page; the industry examples here show how the wider system can be configured.
No separate industry fee
There is no separate charge for an industry configuration. The underlying capabilities and limits still depend on your subscription plan.
Switchable later
Review your configuration as the business changes. Existing records remain in the same system.
You don't have to pick one
Without an industry configuration you can use the standard workspace. The modules and limits available are those included in your plan.

Frequently asked questions.
How are supplier price files handled?
They're imported on a schedule. You see the changes before they take effect, along with the quotes and open orders they would affect, so a cost rise doesn't eat into the margin on work you've already promised.
Does this configuration cost extra?
There is no separate industry-configuration fee. Features such as manufacturing, advanced warehouse operations and group reporting still require the relevant subscription plan.
Can I switch this configuration later?
Review the proposed configuration changes with your team before applying them. Check permissions, workflows and plan requirements rather than treating a configuration change as a data migration.
Is this configuration available now?
Yes. Review the workflows described on this page against your requirements and the plan comparison before rollout. Wholesale and subscription packs are also generally available.
Start from a setup that fits your business.
The electrical & industrial industry configuration has no separate fee. Check the underlying plan requirements and discuss your setup with us.
