When the components of the product are added, alternative products are added to the product depending on the alternative questions. Added alternative products are matched with variations of the features added to the product. When the structure is created according to the matched "Alternative Products" variations, the stocks in the structures will change according to their variations. The aim here is to create BOMs depending on the main product with stocks that vary according to their variations.

Steps;

  • In the product structure, "Alternative Question" is selected for the component whose property we want to change.

Attention: By going to the alternative product questions page, the feature should be selected on the update screen of the question we added. This feature should be one of the features added to the product. Whichever change is requested in the stock of the added component is selected.

For example: If the colour of the fabric stock needs to be changed in the variation structure, the "Colour" feature in the product properties should be selected. The reason for this is that the stock should change according to the variation feature.

  • If a question is defined in the product structure, there will be an "Alternative Products" icon next to the stocks. By clicking this icon, alternative products are added to the product. In the table, the added question also appears as a column. Below the column are the variations of the added feature.
  • Variations of added alternative products are selected.
  • Inventories are created according to the size and distribution table on the "Measurement and Distribution Table" page created for the product. When you go to the product structure page, the stocks created in the stocks box are displayed. Currently, these stocks do not have a structure. The product is matched with the variation on the "Inventory Code" page that opens when any variation is clicked.
  • When the product structure is created according to its variations, an alternative product and its feature automatically added to the product will be available. The alternative product selected according to the variation comes to the structure as stock.
  • For example, a product; The same color fabric cannot be used in the red, blue, or white version. For this reason, product structures are customized according to these processing sequences and variations.
