Approve the ordered size and colour matrix before production release, including the technical-pack revision and agreed tolerance for substitutions. Preserve both the total garment quantity and each variant commitment. Purchasing and cutting should work from the same approved breakdown, with later changes recorded as explicit decisions about materials, timing and customer acceptance.
Understand the decision
A hypothetical retailer orders one jacket style across five sizes and three colours. After sample approval, the buyer shifts quantities toward larger sizes but leaves the total unchanged. The change affects fabric consumption and cutting plans even though the commercial order still appears to contain the same number of jackets.
Work through the requirements
- Confirm quantities for every ordered variant.
- Attach the approved technical-pack revision.
- Review material and schedule impacts of matrix changes.
| Record or decision | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Variant matrix | State size and colour commitments. |
| Sample approval | Record the accepted construction version. |
| Change decision | Explain revised quantities and impacts. |

Watch for this failure
A style total is insufficient for cutting or delivery acceptance. Keep the approved variant breakdown available at each handoff, and avoid burying changed size ratios in an email that the material planner may never see.
Continue the evaluation
This example defines what to verify, rather than promising a particular Odoo feature. Keep a record of the demonstrated result, configuration, unresolved gaps and person who accepts it.
