Greige Fabric ​

Not yet available

The production module isn't open in JennyERP yet — we're polishing samples, partners, inventory & finance first. This page describes the upcoming module so you can see what's ahead.

Greige (loom-state, undyed/unfinished fabric) is tracked separately from finished goods. Keep a catalog of the base fabrics you buy in, their specs and suppliers, and the stock you hold ready for dyeing or finishing.

The greige catalog ​

Go to Greige Fabric to see your base fabrics. Each row shows:

ColumnMeaning
ImageThumbnail of the fabric
CodeThe greige item code
NameFabric name
CompositionFiber content, e.g. 100% Cotton, 65% Poly 35% Cotton
WidthRoll width
SupplierWho you buy it from
StockQuantity on hand, with unit (e.g. meters)
PriceUnit cost

Greige items also carry a color (typically Natural) and a weight (e.g. g/m²). Use the search box to filter by code, name, composition, or supplier.

Receiving greige by the piece ​

Fabric usually arrives as a set of rolls (pieces), each a slightly different length. When you receive greige on a goods-in order, you can record each piece individually rather than entering a single lump quantity. The order rolls up the piece measures into a received total and updates stock.

A goods-in order moves through three states:

StatusMeaning
Not receivedNothing booked in yet
Partially receivedSome pieces received, more expected
ReceivedAll expected goods are in

TIP

Recording piece measures gives you an accurate roll-by-roll record, so cut planning and stock figures reflect the real lengths you received — not a rounded estimate.

Greige vs. finished goods ​

  • Greige — base fabric you buy in to dye, print, or finish
  • Finished goods — your sellable products (see Goods)

Keeping them apart means your stock figures and costs stay clean as fabric moves from loom-state through production into a finished product.
