Creating Specifications from the Line Sheet
Merchandising managers and product designers responsible for season planning can use the line sheet to create multiple product specifications at the same time. Selecting the product and source combinations can be done from the product line sheet. Creating specifications requires sourcing configuration information in the line sheet view. The Create New: Specifications option does not appear in the Actions menu if sourcing information is not visible or available.
Use the following steps to create specifications from the line sheet:
1. Open the line sheet viewer for the season that you want to work with, including the sourcing configuration in the view.
2. Select the checkbox in front of each product that you want to create a specification for. To select all of the products in the line sheet, select the All checkbox.
3. After products have been selected, open the Actions menu and select the Create New: Specifications option.
4. The system asks you if you want to create the selected number of specifications. If you accept the creation, the system creates the specifications. Canceling the creation means no specifications are created, and you can review the selected products before continuing.
5. The system confirms that the specifications have been created. The specification type matches the product’s specification type defined by the Type and Attribute Management utility.
