Add Supply chain
A supply chain encompasses everything from the delivery of source materials from the supplier to the manufacturer through to its eventual delivery to the end user.
Category: Select the Asset Category from the dropdown list. Supply Chain categories include Manufacturing units such as factories, storage facilities such as warehouses, processing centers, distributions centers, and even offices to move and track products and services within and throughout the supply chain.
External ID: Asset ID is the unique Supply Chain ID with Alphabets or Numbers or Alphanumeric.
External ID cannot be changed once data is saved and created.
Supply chain traceability allows you to track products from source to consumer. It connects all the points in supply chain together, keeping you in control of your goods and branding.
Name: Users can enter the Supply Chain name.
All the created “Supply chains” are listed here.
