Understanding Line Types

Line types control how parts transactions interface with the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne General Ledger and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management. Specifically, the line type that you assign to a part is a code that:

  • Controls with which of four systems the transaction interfaces, such as JD Edwards EnterpriseOne General Ledger, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Receivable, and JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Payable.

  • Specifies the conditions for printing a line on reports.

  • Specifies the conditions for including a line in calculations.

You set up line types in JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement. Depending on the planning and reporting needs, you might need to set up an additional line type to differentiate pseudo-nonstock part transactions from genuine nonstock part transactions.

Important: You need to be thoroughly familiar with order line types before you add or modify them. Extreme damage to the system can occur if you do not set up order line types with precision and logic.
