Creating Distribution Codes

Before you can create a distribution list, you must first define the distribution codes that you want to use.

This task is a step in Process of Managing Product Distribution.

To set up distribution codes

  1. Navigate to the Administration - Data screen, then the List of Values view.

  2. In the List of Values view, query for the Type field RTL_PRFL_DIST_CODE.

    The query results show all the account distribution codes that are available.

  3. In the Order column, assign a different number to each distribution code to create a sequence.
    Note: The sequence that is applied to this LOV determines the order in which the distribution codes appear on the Dist. Code list. The sequence does not impose organization, but applies a rank in an inclusive distribution system.
