Create Feature

When a planning item is added to an order on the Estimate Lines, Customer Order Lines, and Customer Order Blanket Lines forms, the system looks for an existing item with the same Feature String. That is, if the same configuration is already used, a quantity of the item may still be in stock.

Use this setting to specify how the system should handle new configurations when no item with the same Feature String exists. Your options are:

  • Auto-Create: When you click Configure/Create Item on the form, the system automatically creates a new inventory item with the specified configuration.
  • No Create: When you click Configure/Create Item, nothing happens. No item is created.
  • Prompted: When you click Configure/Create Item, a system message is displayed asking whether or not to create a new item.
