This chapter contains these topics:
The Supplemental Database is an optional feature that allows you to store information about an item that you do not include in the standard master tables.
For example, perhaps you need to track detailed information for your engineering change specifications. Using the supplemental database, you could enter information such as the departments and people who are responsible for specific duties.
In another example, you could use the supplemental database to track costs for an advertising campaign. For each end item, you could enter campaign information such as dates, costs, the type of campaign, and so forth.
Supplemental data can include:
Quality performance information
Legal descriptions
Repair and replacement records
Government procurement information
Hazardous material regulations
