Setting Up Message Rules

Access the Condition-Based Maintenance Message Rules Revisions form.

Message Rules Type

Enter a code to indicate the message rules type. Values are listed in UDC 13/TY (Message Rules Type). The system displays either the notification or investigation fields based on the message rule type.

Customer Number

Enter a number to identify an entry in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Address Book system, such as employee, applicant, participant, customer, supplier, tenant, or location.

Site Number

Enter an address book number for the lessor, renter, or lending institution.

Business Unit

Enter an alphanumeric code to identify a separate entity within a business for which you want to track costs. For example, a business unit might be a warehouse location, job, project, work center, branch, or plant.

You can assign a business unit to a document, entity, or person for purposes of responsibility reporting. For example, the system provides reports of open accounts payable and accounts receivable by business unit to track equipment by responsible department.

Business unit security might prevent you from viewing information about business units for which you have no authority.

Location

Enter the current physical location of an asset. The location must have a valid business unit or job number in the Business Unit Master table (F0006).

Enter a code to classify an inventory item into a model or group for customer service.

Examples include Laser Printer, InkJet, or Fax.

Equipment Number

Enter a numeric value up to eight digits that uniquely identifies an asset.

Inventory Number

Enter an inventory item number. The system provides three separate item numbers plus an extensive cross-reference capability to other item numbers to accommodate substitute item numbers, replacements, bar codes, customer numbers, supplier numbers, and so forth. The item numbers are:

Item Number (short): An eight-digit, computer-assigned item number.

2nd Item Number: A 25-digit, free-form, user-defined alphanumeric item number.

3rd Item Number: A 25-digit, free-form, user-defined alphanumeric item number.
