## Setting Up Items

This chapter provides an overview of item setup and discusses how to:

- Set up incompatible items.

- Set up item shipping information.

### Understanding Item Setup

To increase the efficiency of the transportation system, you can set up items with specific shipping information. By setting up this information, you can avoid any potential problems with incompatible items or items that might be shipped incorrectly. For example, if you have a product that cannot be loaded on to a shipment with another product, you can set up each item to identify the product mixes that are not compatible.

### Setting Up Incompatible Items

This section provides an overview of incompatible item setup, lists a prerequisite, and discusses how to set up incompatible items.

#### Understanding Incompatible Item Setup

You set up incompatible items at the item level in the system. If two or more items are hazardous when mixed, then the system does not allow those items on a shipment or load. The mixing type determines whether the items are incompatible on a load or shipment or whether the items are in a prohibited load sequence.

#### Prerequisite

Before you complete the tasks in this section, set up items in the Item Master table (F4101).

### Setting Up Item Shipping Information

This section provides an overview of item shipping information setup, lists a prerequisite, and discusses how to:

- Set processing options for Item Master (P4101)..

#### Understanding Item Shipping Information Setup

Item shipping information extends the item master information that is found in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Inventory Management system. Use Item Master (P4101) to set up specific item requirements that might need to be evaluated during shipping, such as freight classification, commodity codes, hazardous materials information, and export

#### Setting Processing Options for Item Master (P4101)

Processing options enable you to specify the processing for programs and reports.

Defaults

These processing options define the information that the system uses, such as unit of measure.

1. Primary Unit of Measure | Identify the primary unit of measure that the system uses. If you leave this processing option blank, the system uses EA (each).
2. Weight Unit of Measure | Identify the unit of measure for weight that the system uses. If you leave this processing option blank, the system uses LB (pounds).
3. Volume Unit of Measure | Enter the user-defined code (UDC) (00/UM) that indicates the unit of measure by metric conversion for ambient volume. For example, the unit of measure code for a gallon might be GL; the unit of measure code for a liter might be LT. If you leave this processing option blank, the system uses GA (gallons).
4. Template | Enter a template name that you can use when entering items on Item Master Revisions (P4101). This name is case-sensitive. If you use any capital letters in the template name when you add it, you must enter those letters in capitals whenever you search for or attach the template to Item Master Revisions. If you leave this processing option blank, the system does not use a template.

Process

These processing options specify the effective from and through dates that the system uses in the Item Notes table and whether the system displays certain forms when you add or change information on the Item Master Revisions form.

1. Notes From Date | Specify the effective beginning date that the system uses in the Print Messages table (F4016). If you leave this processing option blank, the system uses the system date.
2. Notes Thru Date | Specify the effective ending date that the system uses in the Print Messages table (F4016). If you leave this processing option blank, the system uses the last day of the default century.

11. Use Templates | Specify whether to use templates for segmented items. Values are: Blank: Do not use templates. 1: Use templates.

Workflow

These processing options were used previously to specify whether to activate workflow and whether users were allowed to add or change information. Do not use any of the Workflow processing options. They are not supported and will be removed in a future release.

Global Update

This processing option enables you to update changes that were made to the second or third item numbers to records in selected tables.

1. Transfer Changes | Specify which tables the system updates when you have made changes to item numbers in the item branch records. Use UDC 40/IC to compile the list of tables. Values are: Blank: The system does not update any tables. 1: The system updates only those tables that contain item branch information with changes to the second and third item numbers. 2: The system updates only selected tables that contain item branch information with changes to the second and third item numbers. The system updates only selected tables that contain item branch information with changes to the second and third item numbers.

Versions

These processing options specify the versions for various programs that you access from the Item Master program. Versions control how the system processes and displays information. Therefore, you might need to set the processing options to meet specific needs.

1. Item Availability (P41202) | Specify the version that the system uses for the Item Availability program (P41202). If you leave this processing option blank, the system uses version ZJDE0001.

Interop

These processing options specify whether the system performs outbound interoperability processing and whether the system creates a record of a transaction prior to changes to the transaction.

1. Transaction Type | Define the type of document for which you want the system to search. The transaction type is a UDC (00/TT) that identifies the type of transaction, such as an invoice or a sales order. You can either enter the transaction type or select it from the Select User Define Code form. The system uses the transaction type as the default value. If you leave this processing option blank, the system does not perform export processing.
2. Before/After Image Processing | Specify whether the system creates a record of a transaction after the transaction is changed or whether the system creates records of a transaction before and after a transaction is changed. Values are: Blank: Write only the after image. 1: Create two records, one record before changes and one record after changes.
