  Key Concepts: 
  A marker section is a feature of the IS-AFS SAP Apparel and Footwear Solution. It is used to define the size and shape of a garment pattern, which is then used to create a physical sample of the garment. The marker section is created by entering the measurements of the pattern pieces into the system, which then generates a marker that can be used to cut out the fabric pieces for the garment. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the marker section feature, first enter the measurements of each pattern piece into the system. This can be done manually or by importing a file containing the measurements. Once all of the measurements have been entered, the system will generate a marker that can be used to cut out the fabric pieces for the garment. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When entering measurements into the system, it is important to ensure that they are accurate. If any measurements are incorrect, it could result in an inaccurate marker and an ill-fitting garment. Additionally, it is important to double-check all measurements before generating a marker, as any changes made after generating a marker will require a new one to be created.
