Blank apparel is a size-and-color grid
A print shop's blank apparel stock behaves like any apparel inventory: the same style in different sizes and colors are effectively different SKUs, each with its own demand. A shop can show plenty of a popular style overall while actually being out of the specific size a customer's order calls for — tracking at the size/color level, not just the style level, is what catches that before a job gets started on the wrong size.
Ink and consumables need their own tracking
Ink, transfer film, backing paper, and other consumables run out on their own schedule, separate from blank apparel stock, and a shortage there stops every job on the production floor, not just the one order that happened to trigger it. Reorder points for consumables deserve the same attention as blanks — a shop that only watches apparel stock can still get caught flat-footed on ink mid-run.
Reserving materials against a specific job
Once a job is confirmed and scheduled, the blanks and materials it needs should be reserved against that job, not just counted as generally available stock. Without that reservation, a second job placed before the first ships can draw down the same limited stock of a specific size or color, leaving the first job short at production time.
