This feature is used when your factory produces different variations of the same product, allowing that the same operations result in slightly different products.

Let's say your factory produces t-shirts. To produce a t-shirt, your factory workers perform operations that are always the same. However, the t-shirts produced may come in different colors and sizes.

To represent this in Fusion Operations, follow the steps below:

1. Create a product with the code ‘T-shirt’.

2. Create two parameters for that product - this means your t-shirt varies in ‘Color’ and ‘Size’. Learn how to create these Parameters in the article.

3. Now, add those parameters to your recently created product ‘T-shirt’.

When creating Production Orders, you can now specify different quantities to be produced for different colors of shirts.

This can also be done when inserting Production Orders in your shopfloor tablet.

When a worker starts Insert Production, they will have to choose what type of t-shirt they will be producing. When the production is finished, it will be associated with the color in which it was produced.

If you use Inventory in Fusion Operations, you will now be able to see the quantities you have of ‘T-shirt’, filtered by its ‘Color’ and ‘Size’.

You can use as many parameters as you want per product.

If you still have some doubts about the product parameters, feel free to reach out in our live chat feature or directly to your CSM.
