Add New Production Facility

Adding production facilities in kolum helps you track where your goods are produced and link them accurately to articles and emissions data. Keeping your facilities organized ensures your reporting is accurate and your supply chain remains transparent. Each production facility you add represents a real-world location where your products are manufactured. This is crucial for emissions tracking, article mapping, and reporting processes. It also helps your team align production data with the correct facilities, improving data quality and making your workflows easier to manage.

Production facilities belong to a company, so you manage them from the company they belong to rather than from a separate page.

How to Add a New Production Facility

  1. Open the company. Go to Master Data > Companies, open the company the facility belongs to, and switch to its Associations tab.
  2. Start a new facility. In the Production Facilities block, click Add New.
  3. Enter Production Facility Details:
    • Name: Give your facility a clear, recognizable name (e.g., "Berlin Plant 1").
    • Identifier: Your reference for the facility, used in uploads and exports.
  4. Enter Address Details. You can either:
  • Use company address by checking the box if the facility's address is the same as the company's; the address fields are then locked and follow the company's address, also when the company address changes later, or
  • Enter address details manually:
    • Street Name and Number (optional)
    • PO Box (optional)
    • City (mandatory)
    • Postal Code (optional)
    • Country (mandatory, select from the dropdown)
    • UN/LOCODE (optional)
    • Latitude and Longitude (optional for precise mapping)
  1. Click "Create Production Facility". Once all required fields are complete, click Create Production Facility to save it.
  2. Check Your Facility in the List. After creation, the facility appears in the Production Facilities block of the company's Associations tab, ready for article mapping and emissions tracking. Click it to open its detail page.

What's new

Production facilities are now added directly from the company they belong to, on the company's Associations tab, and can inherit the company's address.
