Adding sizes or colours to an existing style (Direct) Where you have a request from your customer to add an extra size or colour to and existing style it must come through Category for approval. 1. To ensure the size /colour can be supported for replenishment 2. To ensure the specifications we send to the factory are amended and updated for the next time we order 3. To ensure the information in our Catalogues and Data sheets is correct. 4. To ensure we are not ordering fabric we can’t use and stock we can’t sell. Your request must be checked with planning and inventory looking at historical data. If your request cannot be supported by an ongoing customer forecast then the size or colour you are requesting should not be added to the existing style range. This type of order should be put through as a special and no stock held against the size. It is Category’s role to ensure the integrity of the data is maintained at all times so we must know what is happening with all styles to evaluate the best way to proceed with your requests.
