Creating style variant

You can create variant of existing styles and use it for a new season.

  1. Select Basics > Styles.
  2. Right-click a style that you want to create a variant of and select Copy / Variant.
    Depending on your permissions, you may see one or both of the options. If you cannot see the option that you require, contact your administrator or see the Infor CloudSuite PLM for Fashion Administration Guide.
  3. Select Variant.
  4. Specify this information:
    Number
    Specify a style number.

    If the ID generator is set up for the Style module and you do not specify a number, the ID generator automatically generates the number based on the next number in the series.

    If the ID generator is not set up, you must specify a number. The application validates this field when you click Execute.

    Name
    Specify the name of the style variant.

    By default, the name of the variant is the name of the style prefixed with the phrase "Variant of".

  5. Select information clusters whose contents will be copied for this variant.
    By default, all information clusters are selected. You can clear items that you do not need.
    Note: If enabled in the settings, inactive colors are not copied.

    Contact your administrator or see the Infor CloudSuite PLM for Fashion Administration Guide.

  6. Click Execute.
    After the task is executed, the created style variant appears in a new tab.

    In the Miscellaneous Information section of the Overview tab, the Variant check box is selected. This field is also shown as a column in the Styles list page, but administrators must add this column in custom layouts.

    Use the Style Relations pane to view the relation between source style (parent) and variant (child).
