To **manage apparel production orders by size and color**, register each order with a size and color grid, calculate fabric and trim needs, track stages — cutting, sewing, finishing, packing —, manage outsourced workshops, and deliver complete grids to customers.

In **Jestor**, orders, grids, and stages are connected, so apparel production stays organized.

## Why is apparel production complex?

Each order has many combinations of sizes and colors. Workshops are often outsourced.

Quantities get mixed, fabric runs short, and incomplete grids are delivered.

## What problems does order management solve?

- Size and color mix-ups
- Fabric shortages
- Workshops without tracking
- Incomplete deliveries
- Delays unnoticed

## What mistakes should you avoid when you manage apparel production orders by size and color?

- Tracking only total quantities.

## Why use Jestor for apparel production?

- **Grids**: sizes and colors.
- **Formulas**: fabric calculated.
- **Workshop tracking**: pieces sent and returned.
- **Dashboards**: orders by stage.

## What do you need before starting?

Record fabric consumption per piece for main models, and register outsourced workshops with capacity and contacts.

Collect workshop capacities before peak seasons, so orders are distributed realistically and delivery dates are reliable for customers. Record workshop quality issues too, so future orders go to the most reliable partners.

## How do you get the team on board?

Workshops receive clear orders with grids, and the factory knows exactly how many pieces are at each place.

## How do you measure progress?

Track orders delivered complete and on time, and losses in cutting and sewing. Workshops with high losses or delays receive attention.

## What results can you expect?

Complete deliveries, fewer losses, and better control of outsourced production. Customer satisfaction rises with reliable grids.

This is how you manage apparel production orders by size and color and deliver every piece right.
