Assigning a Line Type for Nonstock Items

You can set up the line type for nonstock items so that the system retrieves information from the Item Master table (F4101) but does not commit quantities. The Edit Item Master for Non-Stock Items option controls whether the system validates the item on the sales order line against the F4101 table. The system uses this option only with nonstock inventory interfaces.

During order entry, the system verifies the item number in the F4102 table and the cost and price information in the Item Cost File table (F4105) and Item Base Price File table (F4106). However, the system does not create commitments or perform availability checks.
