Item Number

A number to be assigned to an item. The number can be in short, long, or third item number format.

Line Type

A user-defined code (UDC) that controls how the system processes lines on a transaction. The line type controls the systems with which the transaction interacts, such as JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Job Cost, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Payable, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Receivable, and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management. It also specifies the conditions under which a line prints on reports, and it is included in calculations. Values include:

S: Stock item

J: Job cost

N: Non-stock item

F: Freight

T: Text information

M: Miscellaneous charges and credits

W: Work order

Order Type

A user-defined code that the system uses to determine the type of work order, based on the value in the Order Type field. Values are:

01: Unrelated to work order.

02: Manufacturing work order.

03: Manufacturing rework work order.

04: Equipment work order.

05: Service work order.

06: Warranty claim order.

07: Supplier recovery order.

08: Engineering change order.

09: Engineering change request order.

10: Property Management order.

11: Engineer to Order summary order.

12: Rate schedule order.

Document Type

A user-defined code from UDC table (00/DT) that identifies the origin and purpose of the transaction. The system reserves several prefixes for document types, such as vouchers, invoices, receipts, and time sheets. The reserved document type prefixes for codes are:

P: Accounts payable documents.

R: Accounts receivable documents.

T: Time and Pay documents.

I: Inventory documents.

O: Purchase order documents.

S: Sales order documents.

Lot/Serial Number

A number that identifies a lot or a serial number. A lot is a group of items with similar characteristics.

Stocking Type

A user-defined code from UDC table (41/I) that indicates how you stock an item, for example, as finished goods or as raw materials. These stocking types are hard coded and you should not change them:

F: Feature

K: Kit parent item

The first character of Description 2 in UDC table (41/I) indicates if the item is purchased (P) or manufactured (M).

Unit of Measure

Enter a user-defined code from UDC table (00/UM) that indicates the primary unit of measure for the item. The primary unit of measure must be the smallest unit of measure in which you handle the item.

This is the primary stock accounting unit (PSAU) of measure that the system uses to store all inventory. If you change the primary unit of measure, the conversion factors in the item level conversion table are no longer valid.

The default value for this field is the unit of measure that you specify for the item on the Item Master Revisions form.
