Changes to Parts
Last updated: July 28, 2025
We've made some important improvements to how you work with parts in Cofactr.
As part of our ongoing platform enhancements, we've updated the parts experience with a more intentional approach to managing your parts.
What's Changed
Consolidated Parts Experience: Part Search and Part Library have been combined into one unified "Parts" app (located between Dashboard and BOMs). The separate Watchlist app has been deprecated.
Enhanced Part Organization:
New part type indicators show whether you're looking at OTS parts, custom parts, services, or non-stocked materials
Visual source icons replace text to show if parts are from Your Part Library, Cofactr Component Cloud, or both
Streamlined part detail views with fewer tabs for easier navigation
Improved Search and Selection:
Unified search at the top of the Parts app with options to search Your Part Library, Cofactr Component Cloud, or both
Enhanced part picker appears when adding parts to BOMs with the same search functionality
Create different part types using the "New Part" button with type-specific fields
