PLM: Building Out BOMs in PLM - Step By Step: PRODUCTION BOM
Steps to take when building out a PRODUCTION BOM:
1. Identify the design you will be working in.
On the Design > Colors Section:
2. Ensure the PRODUCTION COLOR(S) are associated with the design.
On the Design> BOMs Section:
3. On the "SMS DEVELOPMENT" BOM, ensure:
- The PRODUCTION COLOR(S) are associated with the design.
- The "SMS DEVELOPMENT" BOM is approved.
4. Once above is confirmed, copy from "SMS DEVELOPMENT" BOM and rename the new BOM "PRODUCTION"
- To Copy a BOM, click the button "
", and select "Copy"
- To Rename a BOM, click the button "
", and select "Edit"
- Once you select "Edit", you will be brought to below screen where you can rename the BOM. Please ensure you have the "COLORWAYS" checked in blue (as imaged below.)
- Then select "Save & Close"
- You will then be brought to the materials tab of the new "PRODUCTION" BOM.
On the "MATERIALS" TAB of BOM:
4. Add/ remove materials (as needed) to the PRODUCTION BOM. (Materials from "copied" BOM will already be in the new BOM.)
5. Add the "Yield/ QTY" to all materials on BOM, ensuring all information is correct. (Ensure UOM is correct on each material line.)
6. Add the "Responsibility" data in for each material line. This indicates who is responsible for purchasing this material for this design.
On the "COLORS" TAB of BOM:
7. Associate material colors with the materials on the BOM (as needed.)
- If garment color(s) & materials for PRODUCTION BOM is same as SMS color(s), color will already be filled in at the material line.
Once you have checked over the PRODUCTION BOM, and all information is correct the BOM is complete & ready to be approved.
