Overview: When a customer’s part is not recognized in the MTO catalog, & there is no part that would match, so Aliasing is not an option, that is when you can add to the Catalog
Unrecognized parts appear in red, indicating the part is missing from the catalog or has a naming issue.
IMPORTANT: If your catalog has a part would match this unrecognized name, use an ALIAS instead of this method.
e.g. your catalog has "CH 24x16" but you have received "CH-24-16" as the name of this part. Use an Alias for this case.
