Split SKU Values (B32)

Purpose: Use this screen to define the presentation of the SKU fields in the Inventory, and Order Entry/Order Maintenance functions if you are using a split SKU format.

Split SKU Element Column Headings (A52, A53, A54)

Enter the headings that you want to appear over SKU elements 1, 2, and 3. These column headings are used throughout the system for a split SKU. This is also the sequence in which the data will be presented on all screens and reports throughout the system except Order Entry. The SKU Column Heading represents the text that appears above the user input field for a particular SKU element.

This format allows you to define up to three 4-character descriptions for a base item. A SKU further defines an item in terms of color, size, width, etc. This screen allows you to define the field names of the SKUs that will be used throughout the system, specify the order in which the SKU elements will appear in all functions except Order Entry and Order Maintenance, and specify the order in which the SKU elements will appear in Order Entry and Order Maintenance.

Split SKU Element Column 1 Heading (A34)

The description you define for Split SKU Element 1 Column Heading will become your primary element if you are using the SKU generator, and is used throughout the Inventory functions.

The primary SKU element designation is used when defining a SKU Group, in which a unique set of sizes, colors, widths, etc. is defined as constants for the group. A SKU group allows you to create a matrix of variables for an item (colors, sizes, widths, etc.), of which a primary and secondary element can be defined. The primary element designation is used for reports to subtotal by whatever value is defined as the primary element.

OE/OM Mapping (A42, A43, A44)

The sequence defined in the OE/OM Mapping fields represents the order in which each of the SKU elements will appear in the Order Entry and Order Maintenance functions. In the OE/OM Mapping column, each of the user input fields represents the first, second, and third SKU fields in the Order Entry and Order Maintenance functions. The number entered in each field represents the SKU element used.

For example, if Split SKU Element 1 is color and the SKU Column Heading is COLR, and Split SKU Element 2 is size and the SKU Column Heading is SIZE, and the Split SKU Element 3 is width and the SKU Column Heading is WDTH, and you enter a 3 in the first OE/OM Mapping field, a 1 in the second, and a 2 in the third, the SKU fields in Order Entry and Order Maintenance will be presented in this sequence: SIZ COL WDTH.

The following settings are valid for these system control values.

SCV A42	SCV A43	SCV A44	Results
1	2	3	SKU element 1 displays first, SKU element 2 displays next, and SKU element 3 displays last.
2	1	3	SKU element 2 displays first, SKU element 1 displays next, and SKU element 3 displays last.
3	1	2	SKU element 3 displays first, SKU element 1 displays next, and SKU element 2 displays last.

Current OE/OM SKU Mapping Sequence (A14, A15, A16)

The Current OE/OM SKU Mapping Sequence illustrates the sequence in which the SKU must be entered for an item in Order Entry and Order Maintenance.
