Overview

Parts Requirements help production engineers to obtain a more complete set of production data when customers are placing their orders.

This feature enables Printing Services to define forms that collect additional information from customers. This minimizes delays waiting for customers to provide that information later in the process and helps provide more accurate pricing and production.
