Product Setup - General overview

Product > Setup > Product

Function acronym: ICSP

Use this page to setup and maintain product records.

After you set up a product, you rarely have to modify the information.

Prerequisites

You must complete these setups before entering product information:

  • SA Company Setup
  • SA Operator Setup
  • SA Table Code Value Setup: Units and Category

Optionally, set up Product Extended Unit Conversion Setup records.

Set up each product in your inventory through this function. The product record contains the information relevant to the product, regardless of which warehouse sells the product. This information applies to each Product Warehouse Product Setup record set up for this product.

You can set up these records, based on information found in Product Catalog Setup. If the product exists in your catalog file, a window appears that allows you to confirm the catalog item. The information in Product Catalog Setup defaults into Product Setup.

When are finished creating records in Product Setup, print the products through the Product Master List Report to confirm the information.

Foreign language translation

If you would like to change the language of the product description that prints on pick tickets, acknowledgments, purchase orders, warehouse transfers, and invoices for a particular customer or vendor, click the Enter Description in Multiple Language link. On the Multiple Language Setup window, select a language and specify a description in that language. When you save your changes, the appropriate documents print the product description you specified if the language code has been defined for the customer or vendor in Customer Setup and Vendor Setup.

See Multiple Language Setup.

Note:  The Enter Description in Multiple Language link does not display on the Product Setup - General window unless you have selected a default language for your company in SA Company Setup, even if the language is English.
