# Scan, Create and Attach Raw Material

## Overview

Scan labels from a box of components. The components will be created and attached to a workstation to be assembled to a board.

### Concept

To scan, create and attach materials the user must go go to the step view of the step where the materials are going to be assembled.

!!! note "The user should see the `Create & Attach` button."

When this button is clicked, a GUI that allows label scanning will be presented.

- The GUI is supports scanning labels and will extract the **Material Name**, **Product Name** and **Quantity**.
- Scanned materials are added to the respective list.
- On process conclusion, materials are created and attached to the feeder.

When concluding the process, materials based on the **BOM** products for the respective step will be created.

!!! info "Preconditions"
    - A **Work Order** with the to-be processed boards must be tracked-in in the line;
    - A **BOM** with the required products must exist.

## Executing
