Creating a Template for Segmented Items

Access the Template Master Revisions form.

You create one or more templates for entering segmented items. If the same template is not applicable for all the segmented items, create a template for each type and name each template appropriately.

After you have created a template, you can attach it to Item Master Revisions form if you select the appropriate processing options on the Defaults and Process tabs of the Item Master program (P4101).

Template

Enter a template name that you can use when entering items on the Item Master Revisions form. This name is case-sensitive. If you use any capital letters in the template name when you add it, you must enter those letters in capitals whenever you search for or attach the template to the Item Master Revisions form.

No Separators

Select this check box if separators are not used in this template and all 25 character spaces can be allotted to the segmented item number.

Note: You must also leave the Segment Separator Character field in the Branch/Plant Constants program (P41001) blank.

Length Used

Enter a running total of the number of spaces, including separators, that are used in all the segments.
