           Objectives

           At the end of this exercise you shall be able to
           •  analyse the sheets used in garment export house.

           Here are some of the key sheets:
           1  Purchase Order Sheet (PO Sheet)

              -    A purchase order sheet (or PO sheet) is an essential document used in garment manufacturing to handle
                 export orders and shipments.
              -   Brands generate PO sheets for their manufacturers, containing information
              -    About production goals for the garment, including quantity, size breakdown, and color combinations
           2  Specification Sheet (Spec Sheet)
              -    A  specification  sheet  (or  spec  sheet)  provides  detailed  information  about  the  garment  design  and
                 construction.
              -     It includes a sketch of the garment design and specifies how the garment should be constructed.
           3  Documentation procedure sheet
              -    This sheet is used for obtaining approval from the central excise authority to remove goods from the factory
                 for export shipments.
              -    It ensures compliance with export regulations and facilitates the smooth movement of goods.
           Purchase order sheet in the garment industry
           A purchase order sheet (or PO sheet) is an important document commonly used in garment manufacturing to
           handle garment export orders and shipments. A PO sheet is generated by the brand for their manufacturer with
           all the information about production goals for the garment, including quantity, size breakdown and color combos.
           In  general,  the  PO  sheet  includes  all  necessary  information  on  a  specific  order  lot  and  is  followed  by  the
           merchandiser from raw materials booking to packing and preparing for export.
           Some important aspects of a PO sheet in garment manufacturing include
           1  The sheet organizes size breakdowns and order quantities.
           2  It also arranged lot-wise or color-wise orders.

           3  Very often a PO sheet includes packing specifications.
           4  The shipment date can be also included in a PO sheet, to ensure the order is packed and shipped on time.
           Garment manufacturers use the PO sheet to plan the cutting and sewing process. For large orders, the fabric
           is cut in bulk for each size. Weight, width and fabric type are taken into consideration before the cutting begins.
           The factory then creates a lay plan to determine how much fabric is needed to avoid excess waste. After the lay
           plan is finalized, the cutting of the fabric finally begins. Depending on the factory’s capacities either a manual or
           computerized method of fabric cutting is used. (Fig 1)
