Suppliers for the Smackdab Catalog

Rob Marks — Mon, 27 Jul 2026 21:37:14 GMT

Hey All! I wanted to give you an update on where we stand with the Smackdab Catalog.

We have about 90% of the building blocks done for full updated pricing from approved suppliers. The remaining 10% that we are working on is updating your existing products with the updated pricing (I know, probably the most important piece for you). We are also actively working on setting all our active suppliers up the way they want so they can approve your pricing.

We truly appreciate all the help we've received from the community. Your support of us has really opened a lot of doors. Special thanks to Steve and Alex from Signals AV, Judy from Atlantic Control Technologies, Ant from Spectrum, Andres from Maxicon, Eric from DAVE, Aaron from Lewis AV, and Ryan from Digital Home Creations for all your help!

On that page, we could really use some help with these 8 - we've hit roadblocks with each of them. If you would like to help us out on these, please comment below and Brian will be in touch.

Let's Talk Labor

Rob Marks — Thu, 23 Jul 2026 22:01:43 GMT

We made a change in Smackdab so that you can easily attach multiple labor products to an item, without needing to do an accessory workaround! I explain it all in this 3 minute video.

I forgot to mention in the video that when you push your Items from iPoint into Smackdab, the labor will come with it. We will grab the primary labor for the item and also any labor items in the accessories and bring those into Smackdab as the attached labor for that product. Easy peasy.

What are Products?

Rob Marks — Tue, 21 Jul 2026 21:45:47 GMT

The Products module in Smackdab is the same idea as the Items Module in iPoint - it's the stuff you sell.

Check out this video that provides an overview of Products vs. Catalog, Custom Items, Labor, and Packages. All in under 3 minutes!

Preview of Advanced Custom Themes

Rob Marks — Fri, 26 Jun 2026 20:56:02 GMT

Here is a preview of what we are working on with themes (Custom templates in iPoint). We are working so that any possible custom template you had in iPoint is possible in Smackdab as well - AND making the process easier to build your theme. Lots of price customizations possible, really giving you the keys to the castle. Enjoy!
