    AFS Bill of Material


    AFS materials contain information about colors, sizes and qualities that are
    stored in grids and categories.
    Due to the data quantity, there are certain requirements for the bill of material
    that must be covered by AFS. These requirements are also used as a quantity
    structure for the product costing

    BOM QTY DISTRIBUTION


    PROFILE

    The quantity distribution profile facilitates the data maintenance in the bill of material.

    Example - You produce ladies' blazers and know from experience that you have an
    excess consumption of 2% per size. .

    Third Party Ordering Process


    In third party order processing, your company passes a sales order on to an external supplier,
    or third party, who then sends the goods directly to the customer. Nevertheless the invoice
    is issued by your company

    Allocation Run

    The special situation of the apparel and footwear industry requires an optimization of the
    assignment of existing stock to open requirements.
    If a stock shortage occurs, the allocation run ensures an optimal assignment of stock to the open
    requirements.
    The allocation run distributes the currently available stock to due sales orders according to
    certain calculation logics at a specific time.
    If the ordered quantities are larger than the actually available stock, you can use the allocation
    run to reach the best customer satisfaction under the given circumstances in your business.
    You can use the ARun Optimizer, you can check and manually correct the results of the allocation
    run if necessary.

    Product Cost Controlling and


    Valuation

    The basis of the costing of a product is its quantity structure. In the product costing the
    quantity structure is based on the specifications of the BOM and the routing.
    In the AFS system, the quantity structure of a product can be defined as grid/categorydependent. Product costing considers these grid/category-dependent specifications.
    When costing a certain stock keeping unit, the system explodes the bill of material for the
    corresponding SKU and determines the relevant routing.
