Use New Item Attributes to Support Oracle Service Logistics and Oracle Planning

You can define the Parts Sourcing and Apply Order Modifiers to Start Quantity attributes when creating or editing an item for use in Oracle Service Logistics and Oracle Planning, respectively.

The Parts Sourcing attribute indicates from where field service parts are sourced. This attribute is added to the Service Logistics attribute group.

The Apply Order Modifier to Start Quantity attribute determines whether to apply the item order modifier settings to the calculation of planned order start quantities. This attribute is added to the Planning Order Modifiers attribute group.

Additionally, you can set the Match Configuration attribute for an item to One Time. This indicates to match the item structure to one of the existing configurations of the models once.
