User-Defined Codes

You can optionally set up UDCs to configure several features of container management, such as:

• Document types

• Status codes

• Line types

Each system has its own UDC types. UDCs are referenced by the system number and type. For example, container management is coded to system 41, and the UDC type for document types is DT.

The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management system already has some codes set up in the UDC table. When a UDC is referred to as hard coded, you should not change it because the system has specific uses for hard coded UDCs. If you change a hard coded UDC, the system might not process the information correctly. You can, however, add new UDCs to meet the own specific business needs.

You can define these document types to simplify the tracking of container transactions:

• Deposit, rental, and refund invoice types.

• Deposit, rental, and refund sales order types.

You must enter the document types for deposit, rental, and refund sales orders in UDC 40/IU so that these orders update inventory when you confirm shipments.
