Look up: How to create Raw Material in Production Order BUT if you want to add attributes, there are a few more steps.
This batch product/raw material needs to be a batch item
Once you tick on 'BATCH ITEM' the attribute section will appear
Now add the attribute option and its values
click on: 'ADD NEW OPTION' to add new; 'X' to delete value; 'trash icon' to delete attribute option
