Add Columbia integration note to help docs
Brief, user-facing mention in both the AI help knowledge base and the human Inventory help article: the catalog is integrated with the Columbia Coatings product catalog, refreshes near real-time, auto-fills specs/SDS/TDS, keeps prices current for quoting, and flags discontinued powders. No API/endpoint detail, per intent. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>

**Manufacturer catalog integration:** The platform is integrated with the Columbia Coatings product catalog. When you add a Columbia powder it auto-fills the color, specs, cure schedule, and SDS/TDS links, and keeps the price current — catalog data refreshes regularly (near real-time). Quotes use the latest catalog price even when your stored cost is older, and a powder's detail page shows the current catalog price (and flags when it has changed since you last bought it). Discontinued powders are flagged "cannot reorder" but stay usable for stock you already have.
|
||||
|
||||
**Stock status:** Three states are shown on every item:
|
||||
- **In Stock** (green) — quantity is above the reorder point
|
||||
- **Low Stock** (red) — quantity is greater than zero but at or below the reorder point; time to reorder
