Adding a UDC

Add a UDC to a UDC type when none of the existing codes is appropriate for your needs. For example, if you need to identify the entries in the address book that are your business partners, you can add a search type B - Business Partners to UDC 01/ST.

Access the Work With User Defined Codes form. On the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne web client, select the appropriate program for changing UDCs.

1. Complete the Product Code and User Defined Codes fields and click Find. In the User Defined Codes field, enter the UDC type for which you want to add the UDC.

2. On the Work With User Defined Codes form, click Add.

3. On the User Defined Codes form, scroll to the last empty row of the detail area.

   Important: Be sure to add each new code on the last detail row so that you do not inadvertently overwrite a blank code, which might appear in the first detail row. A blank code might have only a period in the Description field.

4. Enter a code in the Codes field. To allow a blank as a valid value, leave this field blank.

5. Enter a description in the Description 1 field. To allow a blank as a valid value, type any character (such as a period) in the last space in this field.

6. Complete the Special Handling and Hard Coded fields, and then click OK.
