What it is

Infor Fashion is designed for accessories manufacturers, as well as companies that design, source, and distribute.

• For manufacturers, Infor Fashion supports processes from development, purchasing, planning, sourcing, inventory, and lasting, through to finishing, distribution, and financials. It even provides tools for dealing with those volatile material valuations with which some in the accessories industry have to contend.
• For design, source, and distribute companies, Infor Fashion supports processes from assortment planning, forecasting, and buying through to sales, warehouse management, and omni-channel sales and distribution.

Infor Fashion offers full multi-company, multi-site, multi-currency, language, and time zone handling. You also get support for more than 20 languages and accommodations for other country-specific requirements.

What it means

The emerging "fast fashion" concept means shorter lead times, compacted product lifecycles, and broader product assortments. There is pressure on manufacturers from retail to comply with delivery accuracy, quality and quantity requirements while adhering to socially responsible manufacturing practices. Infor Fashion encompasses all aspects of supply chain management, allowing you to:

• Perform tactical and operational planning across the supply chain.
• Link fabric orders to manufacturing and customer orders.
• Handle warehouse and inventory management.
• Exchange data with customers and suppliers via EDI or XML messages.
• Analyze costs and margins and get notification of exception conditions with operational business intelligence.
