Item Structure Specifications

The following are the item structure specification attributes and their possible values. You set these attributes when you define or update items.

Item Structure Specification Attributes

Attribute Name Description
Assemble to Order Indicates that the item is generally built for sales order demand; a final assembly work order is created based on sales order details.
Autocreated Configuration

Indicates whether the item is automatically created.

If the base model is null, you can't select this attribute.

Base Model

This attribute may be controlled at the master or organization level, depending on your setup.

Displays the model from which an ATO configuration was created. The configuration item lists the ordered model item as its base model.

Create Configured Item

This item attribute is available only for ATO items. The attribute enables you to create configured item bills of materials based on the following options:

  • Based on Sourcing
  • Items based on model, structures based on sourcing
  • Based on Model
Pick Component Indicates whether an item has a bill of material with options, classes, or items picked from finished goods inventory.
Effectivity Control Indicates whether the structure of the item is a date effective structure or a model and unit effective structure. Model effective structures are typically associated with project manufacturing.
Note: You can use the model and unit effectivity control attribute only when you integrate Product Hub with Oracle E-Business Suite. These attributes are invalid in an Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications only scenario, where Product Hub interacts with the Fusion Applications source system. Also, ATO and PTO items can't be model or unit effective.
Structure Item Type Indicates the type of bill of material the item can include, such as standard, model, planning, and so on.
Configurator Model Type

Indicates the capability to match to one of the following existing configurations of the models:

  • Standard
  • Container
  • Null
Supply Type When a structure component is created, the supply type is inherited from the parent item. When you create an item by copying another item, the supply type is also copied. You can modify the supply type as required.
