Date-effective supply sourceYou can temporarily change the supply source of Purchased and Manufactured items. The supply source that you specify in the Items (tcibd0501m000) and the Items - Defaults (tcibd0102m000) sessions is the default supply source. This can be overruled by the actual supply source selected for a specific period of time in the Date-Effective Supply Source (tcibd0110s000) session. The data in the Date-Effective Supply Source (tcibd0110s000) session is company-specific.

You must select the Change Management Allowed check box in the Items (tcibd0501m000) session to indicate that you want to use change order control for the item.
