Create Components within ONYX Align that represent the components used in the production of Print Jobs within your shop. Components are meant to be items that are directly involved with the manufacturing of the printed aspect of your products. For example, if you add grommets to a vinyl banner, the grommets would be created as a Component within ONYX Align. Components are tied to Modifiers, which can then be assigned to Print Jobs.
