You can generate an additional history of all configured strings that customers order. Review this history by customer and item to analyze sales.
From Manufacturing Systems (G3), choose Configurator Operations
From Configurator (G32), choose Create Segment Value History
For the sales orders you select, the Create Segment Value History program:
Retrieves the configured string from the Configured String History table (F3294)
Separates the string
Generates a record for each segment value
Stores the information in the Configured String Segments table (F32942)
You can use this history information to generate custom reports and inquiries.
Note:
The system does not generate the Configured String History table (F3295) automatically. You should run the Create Segment Value History program before you can review the history.From Manufacturing Systems (G3), choose Configurator Operations
From Configurator (G32), choose Configured String History
You can review the configured string history to locate previously ordered configurations at any level of a configured item. The history includes information about customers, orders, price, and cost. You don't have to generate the string history for this review.
You can also view this information during sales order entry, where you can select from previously ordered configured items to enter on the current sales order.
