Off-the-shelf parts
Distinct from Materials, which are generic/quantityless/have many suppliers like screws and nails, Parts are individual components typically available for purchase -- usually a part will have a single product id or webpage for purchase, where a material has many that are mostly equivalent.
Generic parts can be submitted with the Part Form, but each Part Type should have its own subform that allows adding additional semantic information specific to that type.
