IC11


IC11.1 - Item Master

Before you use the Inventory Control application, you must add items using
this form and IC12.1 (Item Location). This form contains non-location specific
item information, including the location of an image file to display for
Web-based ordering applications. Even if an item is shared by multiple
companies or locations, you set up the item only once. For inventoried items,
you set up at least one location with at least one item location record in
IC12.1 (Item Location).

You can set up item master records directly in IC11.1 or you can customize the
item setup process to meet your specific needs in IC10.1 (Formats). If you
customize your own item setup format, you can streamline the process of adding
an item to the Item Master file in IC11.1 and/or to the Item Location file in
IC12.1. Instead of using IC11.1 and IC12.1, you use IC10.2 (Item Master and
Location) to add an item.

In the Item field, you can use two methods for mimicking existing items
(adding selectively or copying exactly).

Select the Add form action to create a new item with selected information.
IC11.1 creates a new item record with the following information:
- Information displayed on the visible form.
- Information from any other IC11.1 forms displayed for the existing item.

Select the Copy form action to quickly add like items to the Item Master file.
IC11.1 creates a new item record exactly like the displayed record.
- Inquire on the existing item.
- Change the item number and other requested fields.
- Select the Copy (Y) form action.
- If needed, select the Change form action to change field values.

If you are using the graphic user interface to enter item data, you can choose
the Attachment button to specify the universal resource locator (URL) for an
image of the item.  This image is displayed when using Web-based ordering.
