Trading Partner Item Descriptive Flexfields

When defining descriptive flexfields associated with trading partner items, you must use certain prefixes when naming the context segments, in order for the segments to be displayed for the respective trading partner type.

The prefixes required for naming the context segments are listed in the following table, with their corresponding trading partner types. For example, if you define a trading partner item descriptive flexfield with a context segment named COMP_TPI_ATTRIBUTES, then the value segments of this context will be displayed for Competitor Item when users conduct transactions in that context.

Trading Partner Type	Prefix for Context Segment
Competitor Item	COMP
Customer Item	CUST
Manufacturer Item	MFG
Supplier Item	SUPP

Manage this flexfield type by using the Manage Trading Partner Item Descriptive Flexfields task in the Setup and Maintenance work area.
