Start with project status
The status says whether stock covers every cut, additional purchase is required, or something remains uncovered. Fix any blocking error before using the numbers.
Use Buy now at the shop
Buy now is the remaining bolt purchase after stock allocation, safety, and upward shop-increment rounding. No additional purchase means the entered stock covers the planned cuts.
Keep comparison concepts separate
- Pattern says
- The external reference you entered.
- Fresh-fabric plan
- All cuts from new fabric, ignoring stock.
- Buy now
- The shortfall after owned fabric is used.
Audit raw, buffered, and rounded lengths
Raw additional plan comes from placement geometry. Safety increases only new fabric. Recommended purchase rounds upward to the selected increment. These are intentionally different values.
