Item data structure
You can further differentiate between items at various suppliers:
- Locations (warehouses)
- Purpose (planning, purchase)
- Origin (supplier, warehouse)
Example
An item is supplied by two different suppliers.
Supplier A ships in lots of 100 pieces because the packing of the item determines so.
Supplier B ships the goods in units of 60 pieces.
You can define specific parameters for each supplier.
You can use the following sessions to define these characteristics:
- Items - Planning (cprpd1100m000)
- Check Item Data by Warehouse (whwmd2210m000)
- Item Supplier Plan (cpvmi0530m000)
These sessions define entities that have an n-to-1 relationship with the general item data.
