Adding Ad Hoc Items
Access the Add New Item form.
- Item Number
Enter a number for the item.
- Description
Enter a description for the item.
- Line Type
Enter a valid line type for the item. The line type controls how the system processes lines on a transaction and controls the systems with which the transaction interacts, such as General Accounting, Job Cost, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, and Inventory Management. It also specifies the conditions under which a line prints on reports, and it is included in calculations. Examples are:
S: Stock Item
J: Job Cost
N: Nonstock item
- Stocking Type
Enter a valid stocking type from user-defined code table 41/I. The stocking type indicates how you stock an item, for example, as finished goods or as raw materials.
- G/L Class Code
Enter a code from user-defined code table 41/9. The G/L class code controls which general ledger accounts receive the monetary amount of inventory transactions for this item.
- Inventory Cost Level
A code that indicates whether the system maintains one overall inventory cost for the item, a different cost for each branch/plant, or a different cost for each location and lot within a branch/plant. Values are:
1: Item level
2: Item/Branch level
3: Item/Branch/Location level
- Location
Enter the storage location in which goods will be received.
- Primary Unit of Measure
Enter a value from user-defined code table 00/UM to indicate the primary unit of measure for the item. The primary unit of measure must be the smallest unit of measure in which you handle the item. This is the primary stock accounting unit (PSAU) of measure that the system uses to store all inventory. If you change the primary unit of measure, the conversion factors in the item-level conversion table are no longer valid. The default value for this field is the unit of measure that you specify for the item on Item Master Information.
- Purchase Price Level
Specify a code to indicate where to retrieve the purchase price for an item when you enter a purchase order. Values are:
1: Use the supplier/item price from the Purchase Price table (F41061).
2: Use the supplier/item/branch price from the Purchase Price table (F41061).
3: Use the inventory cost from the Inventory Cost table (F4105). This cost is based on the inventory cost level and the purchasing cost method that you specify for the item.
The first two codes are applicable only if you set up supplier costs in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement system. If you do not set up supplier costs, the system uses the inventory cost as the default for the purchase order.
