• Key Concepts: 
  Ply is a term used in the LO-FSH Multichannel Fashion Management component of SAP. It is a unit of measure used to describe the thickness of fabric. Ply is typically measured in millimeters (mm) and is used to determine the weight of a fabric. 
  
  How to use it: 
  When using the LO-FSH Multichannel Fashion Management component, ply can be used to determine the weight of a fabric. This can be done by multiplying the ply by the width and length of the fabric. This will give you an approximate weight for the fabric. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When calculating the weight of a fabric, it is important to remember that different fabrics have different densities. This means that even if two fabrics have the same ply, they may not have the same weight. Therefore, it is important to take into account the density of the fabric when calculating its weight.
