| Setting up item data for multisiteIf you use multisite, the item data includes the global item data at the company level and the local item data at the site and office level. You can manually specify the item data, or generate the item
data based on defaults. Item defaults also include settings to generate item
data at local level based on the data specified at global level. At local
level, you can modify the retrieved item data. Setup Step 1. Global item dataSpecify a new item in the Items (tcibd0501m000) session. Consequently, the Item (tcibd0501m100) session is started in which you can specify your global
item data. You can also set up global item data by subentity. Click
the buttons in the Subentities group box to specify this
data. The buttons refer to these subentities and related
sessions: Sales Item - Sales (tdisa0601m000) Project Item - Project (tppdm0105s000) Ordering Item - Ordering (tcibd2600m000) Production Item - Production (tiipd0601m000) Purchase Item - Purchase (tdipu0601m000) Warehousing Item - Warehousing (whwmd4600m000) Freight Items - Freight Management (fmfmd1100m000) Service Items - Service (tsmdm2100m000) Quality Items - Quality Data (qmptc0118m000) Tool Tools (titrp0101m000)
If you specified default global item data in the Item Defaults (tcibd0502m000) session for the selected item group and item type, the
default global item data is automatically populated. You can use the default
values or change the values as required. Step 2. Local item dataThe item data can also include local data, such as sites,
sales offices, and service offices. Consequently, in the Item (tcibd0501m100) session, you can specify the sites, enterprise units, planning clusters, purchase offices, sales offices, and service offices to link to the item. The Item (tcibd0501m100) session includes these tabs: Sites On this tab, you can specify and view the sites that are
linked to the item. Click the Go to details button
for a line to specify and maintain the item data by site in the Items by Site (tcibd1550m000) session. Enterprise Units Refers to the Item - Costing (ticpr0107m000) session. On this tab, you can view the costing data that
is generated based on the enterprise unit that is linked to the warehouse in
the Item - Ordering (tcibd2600m000) session. You must manually specify the Standard Cost Component Scheme, the Surcharge check boxes and the Landed Costs Set. You can also specify new costing
data on this tab. Clusters Refers to the Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000) session. On this tab, you can view the planning data
that is generated based on the planning cluster that is linked to the warehouse
in the Item - Ordering (tcibd2600m000) session. You must manually specify the Order Horizon and the Plan Level. You can also specify new planning data on
this tab. Purchase Offices On this tab, you can specify and view the purchase offices
that are linked to the item. Click the Go to details button for a line to specify and maintain the item data by
purchase office in the Items - Purchase by Office (tdipu0181m100) session. Sales Offices On this tab, you can specify and view the sales offices
that are linked to the item. Click the Go to details button for a line to specify and maintain the item data by
sales office in the Items - Sales by Office (tdisa0181m000) session. Service Offices On this tab, you can specify and view the service offices
that are linked to the item. Click the Go to details button for a line to specify and maintain the item data by
service office in the Items - Service by Service Office (tsmdm2120m000) session.
If you specified default global item data in the Item Defaults (tcibd0502m000) session for the selected item group and item type,
along with the creation of the global item data, local item data can be
generated for the sites and offices specified in the Item Defaults (tcibd0502m000) session. Note - Item by site data is generated based on the defaults that
are specified for the site in the Item Control and Defaults by Site (tcibd1552m000) session. See: Item defaults by site.
- Item by office data is generated based on the defaults that
are specified for the offices, for example, in the Items - Purchase Defaults by Office (tdipu0182m100) and Items - Sales Defaults by Sales Office (tdisa0182m000) sessions. See: Item defaults by office.
