Setting Up Advanced Preferences for GOP Sourcing

Note:

Set up Advance Preferences only if you want to source the Branch/Plant from GOP.

See Setting Up Advanced Preferences.

To configure advanced preferences:

1. Run the Preference Values Definition (F40711) Update report (R40711S) to insert the preference details into the Preference Values Definition table (F40711).

   This is a one-time setup before configuring the advance preferences.

2. Set up a new preference for GOP in the Preference Definition Revisions form.
