Setting Up Basic Item Information by Depot
Access the Item/Branch Plant Info. form.
- Stocking Type
Enter a UDC (41/I) that indicates how you stock an item, for example, as finished goods or as raw materials. These stocking types are hard-coded and you should not change them:
0: Phantom item
B: Bulk floor stock
C: Configured item
E: Emergency/corrective maintenance
F: Feature
K: Kit parent item
N: Nonstock
The first character of Description 2 in the UDC table indicates if the item is purchased (P) or manufactured (M).
- G/L Class
Enter a UDC (41/9) that controls which general ledger accounts receive the dollar amount of inventory transactions for this item.
- Line Type
Enter a code that controls how the system processes lines on a transaction. It controls the systems with which the transaction interfaces, such as General Ledger, Job Cost, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, and Inventory Management. It also specifies the conditions under which a line prints on reports, and it is included in calculations. Codes include:
S: Stock item
J: Job cost
N: Nonstock item
F: Freight
T: Text information
M: Miscellaneous charges and credits
W: Work order
- Supplier Number
Enter a user-defined name or number that identifies an address book record. You can use this number to locate and enter information about the address book record. If you enter a value other than the address book number (AN8), such as the long address or tax ID, you must precede it with the special character that is defined in the Address Book constants. When the system locates the record, it returns the address book number to the field.
For example, if address book number 4100 (Total Solutions) has a long address TOTAL and an * distinguishes it from other entries (as defined in the Address Book constants), you could type *TOTAL into the field, and the system would return 4100.
- Print Message
Enter a UDC (40/PM) that represents a predefined message set up on Print Message Revisions. You can print the message on sales orders, purchase orders, and so forth.
- Sales Taxable
Enter a code that indicates whether the item is subject to sales tax when you sell it. The system calculates tax on the item only if the customer is also taxable.
- Purchasing Taxable
Enter a code that indicates whether the item is subject to sales tax when you purchase it. The system calculates tax on the item only if the supplier is also taxable.
