In the Capacity Allocation tab, click the box to the left of Brand
name to expand the details.
To add factories at the Brand level, click on the box to the left of
Brand name to select and click Actions > Add Factories, the Add Factories
page appears listing all active factories associated to the supplier
assigned in the Capacity Plan Properties.
Note:
If Brand level is selected when adding factories, the selected factories
will be added to all eligible Division/Product Type/COI combinations.
If Division level is selected when adding factories, the selected factories
will be added to all eligible Product Type/COI combinations for the specified
Division. If Product Type level is selected when adding factories, the
selected factories will be added to all COIs for the specified Product
Type.
Select one or more factories and click the Submit button at the bottom
of the screen to add them to the Capacity Plan.
Note:
Factories must have the appropriate product type capabilities assigned
to be assigned in a Capacity Plan (e.g. a factory with a product type
capability of "jeans" cannot be assigned to a Capacity Plan with a product
type attribute of "dresses."
Each factory line added will automatically have a "Supplier Period"
line added underneath. Also a Supplier Period can be added by clicking
Actions > Add Supplier Period. Given the merchandising month, or month
in which the product should be in-store, the Supplier Period will indicate
the supplier's production (start) month and "at consolidator" (AC) month
to be able to meet the merchandising month requirement.
Click Mode from the toolbar to switch from view mode to entry
mode. Each Season/Month on the column header line of the grid represents
a merchandising month, or month in which the product should be in-store.
Each merchandising month has an associated production month (when the
goods must be made to meet the in-store date) and AC month (when the
goods must be at the consolidator to meet the in-store date). Click on
the Production Month field for the factory/supplier period line and select
a month/year from the drop-down list, tab to the AC month field and select
a month/year from the drop-down list, and then tab to the Capacity Unit
field and enter the capacity units for the supplier for the given time
period. Continue to enter months and units as necessary.
Click Apply.
