How to use/customize ERPNext for Garment/apparel manufacturing?

Greetings Community!
I am working on a project for a company which manufactures Custom Jackets.
So basically they get orders with different parameters like:

  • Collar type and color
  • Body material and color
  • Sleeves type and color
  • Snaps or zipper
  • Pockets type and color
  • Patches (images)
  • Dimensions too

I want to implement the manufacturing of Custom Jackets in ERPNext.
I did tried looking for solutions here, but they seems not that much clear.

Studying ERPNext manufacturing document, I think this is an “Engineer to Order” type of manufacturing.

So I watched https://youtu.be/GANHuLUptBQ this video by Frappe on ERPNext Engineer to Order. Got more confused, so like for each custom jacket do I have to create different Projects. Bit tricky to wrap my mind around.

Did checkout this discussion, it doesn’t seem very clear. What to do where to do.

This seems too customized, I’m a beginner so couldn’t customize this much or should I?

So like, do I have to create new item each time a jacket order is there?
How do I proceed? What steps should I take to implement the manufacturing process of custom jackets?

Any suggestions will help me a lot.
Thank you!

ERPNext manufacturing module is quite generic. You may be able to customize the production and operation doctypes to meet your needs. If you need more, I you will need to find a developer who can implement your requirements.
