Under Warehouse > Materials you’ll find all the materials stored in Keyline — including paper.
In material management, you can:
search the warehouse
duplicate materials, edit or delete
adjust all settings, such as:
Procurement behavior (automatic or manual purchasing)
Inventory (quantities, storage locations, etc.)
Prices (price per unit, packaging units)
Category assignment (e.g. inks, adhesives, auxiliary materials)
Dimensions and units (e.g. square meters, running meters, pieces)
via a paper import or material import (e.g. from your Excel sheet or a supplier catalog)
or manually as a single entry.
During paper setup, you can enter additional details such as:
grammage
environmental certifications (FSC, PEFC, etc.)
grain direction
surface properties (coated, uncoated, glossy, matte)
as well as standard formats and color properties
Enter these details during paper setup.
Important:
Once created, the paper is automatically linked to a material entry in the warehouse when first used.
All subsequent inventory changes, price updates and warehouse movements (e.g. goods receipts, consumption, transfers) are recorded directly in material management.
This ensures that both costing and warehouse requirements always remain synchronized.
Create new materials
When creating a new material, simply enter the material name.
You can also define the category directly:
Enter a new category and confirm with Enter to create it.
Alternatively, select an existing category using the as-you-type search. Simply enter one or two letters — Keyline automatically shows existing categories for you to choose from.
