This article will explain how vendors can submit data into the less complicated areas of the BoM such as, finishing, plating and miscellaneous charges.
Your Bill of Materials will show a red error icon for each accordion that contains missing data:
Navigate to the relevant section and click the pencil icon to edit the values.
Finishing
For each type of Finish in the Bill of Materials you will be able to enter a labour cost value:
⚠️ Finishing Labour Calculus
You cannot enter two charges for the same finishing type. For example, if you have a piece that contains both some string polishing and some drum polishing then you will need to summate these values into a single Polishing cost.
Once you have entered a cost for every Finish listed on your Bill of Materials, the red error icon will no longer display and you are ready to proceed to the next accordion:
⚠️ Warning
Your Bill of Materials must already contain a Finish in order for you to enter additional specifications and costing data. If your Bill of Materials does not already contain the finish you need then read how to add this here.
Plating
Identical logic applies to the plating accordion in your Bill of Materials. For each plating listed in your Bill of Materials you will need to enter a unique cost:
⚠️ Plating Calculus
- You can enter a unique cost for each plating listed in your Bill of Materials
- Your plating cost should always include the cost of the plating material
- You should not include the labour cost in your Plating section as this would distort your Raw Materials summary
- You can add Plating labour charges in the Labour section
After you have entered a cost value for each plating, the red error icon should no longer display and you are ready to proceed to the next accordion:
⚠️ Warning
Your Bill of Materials must already contain a plating in order for you to enter additional specifications and costing data. If your Bill of Materials does not already contain the plating you need then read how to add this here.
Miscellaneous
The miscellaneous section of the Cost Submission is optional. This means it will never show in a red error state, as none of the fields are mandatory to save a Cost Submission. These fields are:
- Certification (diamond or gemstone services typically)
- Bag (cost of the plastic zip bag to protect the jewellery from tarnishing)
- Tag (cost of the tag required to be applied by the Enterprise retailer)
- Marking (cost of the tag required to be applied by the Enterprise retailer)
- Sleeve (cost of the sleeve required to be applied by the Enterprise retailer)
- Lab Grown Screening (cost of screening services to ensure natural diamonds)
Please speak to the Sourcing team at your Enterprise retailer directly to understand if they require you to complete any of these fields for their purposes.
You can enter a cost for each Miscellaneous field listed above:

We would be happy to add more fields if they can be justified as industry standard miscellaneous charges. Please contact your account manager directly or our support services via the application if you feel you have a strong candidate for addition.
After you have entered a cost value for each miscellaneous field, you will be able to see the value listed in the Cost Submission:
