Import suppliers with owned orders can utilize the Production Tracker (Lumera) in Supplier One to capture key milestone details, including shipment readiness confidence starting 45 days prior to shipment, along with other quality-related fields such as Final Inspection Planned Dates, Sewn Qty Actual, etc.

Users can update milestones either through intuitive digital screens or via Excel batch uploads. Real-time feedback ensures easy tracking and immediate visibility into which entries classify a Purchase Order as “At Risk” or “High Risk”.

      • Shipment Readiness Risk becomes At Risk if any readiness field is marked at any of the intervals (7, 14, 21 days, etc.).
      • Both default to On Track unless risks are identified.

Updating Milestones

The milestone fields will vary by PO category (GM or Apparel).

• GM milestone fields include: FI Planned Date, At Risk X Days (where X = 45, 35, 28, 21, 14, 7), Delay Reason, Sub Reason, Delay Description, Comments (optional field).
• Apparel milestone fields include: PT Planned Date, FI Planned Date, Fabric ETA Planned Date, Fabric ETA Actual Date, Fabric ETD Planned Date, Fabric ETD Actual Date, Sewn Qty Actual, Pack Qty Actual, Cutting Date Planned, Cutting Date Actual, At Risk X Days (where X = 45, 35, 28, 21, 14, 7), Delay Reason, Sub Reason, Delay Description, Comments (optional field).

1. In one of the PO Shipment Timeline tabs, click the check box next to the PO(s) you want to update.

   

2. Click Modify Milestones.

4. Provide the milestone information in the editable fields (e.g., FI Date Planned).

   

   1. When a field is required, it will be highlighted. If the required field is not updated, you must provide a delay reason. This will flag the related milestone as High Risk.

      

   2. If you've selected more than one PO, you will be prompted to provide delay reasons if the other PO FI Planned Date remains empty.
5. Under a milestone (e.g., At Risk 28 Days, 21 Days, etc.), select At Risk or On Track based on confidence or risk of meeting the ship date.
   Shipment risk fields are reviewed every 7 days starting 45 days before shipment. At any time, only one field is editable based on days remaining (e.g., 32 days left enables "At Risk 28 Days"). When At Risk is selected, it will mark the following milestones as At Risk.
