Understanding Product Groups

You must define the product groups that a tank or filling line can hold. You must also specify the order in which products can be put into the tank without requiring the tank to be cleaned. The system displays a warning message if you need to flush the tank before adding another product.

The system uses the information about product groups and fill order whenever you perform any of these activities:

  • Transfer product into the tank as part of a general stock movement.

  • Receive product into the tank.

  • Change the current product in the tank on the Additional Tank Information form.

You can set up the product groups for individual tanks or by tank type, depending on your business needs.
