Items by Site (tcibd1550m000)

Use this session to view, specify and maintain item data by site.

When you specify a new item based on item defaults, along with the creation of the global item data, (local) item data by site can be generated in the current session for the sites specified in the Item Defaults (tcibd0502m000) session:

  • If the Sites check box is selected in the Item Defaults (tcibd0502m000) session, local item data is generated automatically for all linked sites.
  • If the Sites check box is cleared, you must manually generate local item data for the site. Use the Create Items by Site command on the appropriate menu of the Sites tab in the Item (tcibd0501m100) session.
Note: 
  • This session is available only if you use multisite.
  • The buttons in the Subentities group box refer to the item data by subentity for a site, such as Items - Sales by Site (tdisa0181m100) and Items - Production by Site (tiipd0151m000).

This session is started when you double-click a record on the Sites tab of the Item (tcibd0501m100) session.

Lot Controlled

If this check box is selected, the item must be assigned to a lot.

Serialized

If this check box is selected, occurrences of the item are serialized items. LN generates the serial numbers by using a mask, or you can manually specify the serial numbers.

Note: If you cannot select this check box, the rounding factor of the serialized item's inventory unit may be wrong. You must set the rounding factor in the Units (tcmcs0101m000) session to 1.0.

If this check box is cleared, you can still manually define serial numbers for this item in the Serialized Items (tcibd4501m000) session.

Unit Effective End Item

If this check box is selected, the item is unit effective.

Unit Effective Supply

Order planning in Enterprise Planning results in calculating the demand for the components of parent items. If an effectivity unit is assigned to the parent item, you can choose to specify the components of the parent item by the parent item's effectivity unit.

If this check box is selected, LN communicates the parent item's effectivity unit to the component items. This means that if the same component item is used in several unit effective parent items, several orders are generated for the component item, each order with its own effectivity unit.

If this check box is cleared, LN does not communicate the parent item's effectivity unit to the component items. This is useful if the effectivity unit of the parent item is not relevant for the lower part of the item structure. Although components are demanded for 100 different effectivity units, you only get one supply order of 100 pieces for the standard configuration instead of 100 orders.

Note: 
  • You can select this check box only if the Lot Controlled check box is selected. If you store effectivity units in inventory, unit information is linked to the item's lot number: the inventory is stored at lot level, and the unit is recorded in the lot. Note that if an item is not lot controlled, the item is stored with unit 0 (zero) in inventory, even if a demand exists for a specific effectivity unit.
  • If this check box is cleared, the Effectivity Units are Interchangeable check box is always selected and disabled. In this way, the demand is matched with available inventory, irrespective of the effectivity unit.

Example

Item C is a purchased item that is used in two unit effective end items, A and B. One end item, item A, has effectivity unit 15, and the other end item, item B, has effectivity unit 16.

If the Unit Effective Supply check box is selected for item C, and a demand for item C is required when producing items A and B, two purchase orders for item C are created: one purchase order with effectivity unit 15, and another purchase order with effectivity unit 16.

If the Unit Effective Supply check box is cleared for item C, only one purchase order is created to order two items C. The effectivity unit is 0 (zero).

Units are Interchangeable

If this check box is selected, the unit-effective item is interchangeable.

This check box is always selected and disabled if the Unit Effective Supply check box is cleared. In this way, the demand is matched with available inventory, irrespective of the effectivity unit.

Change Order

The change order that determines the item's effective date. LN cannot use the item before the effective date. The change order is linked to the item in the Change Management module of Data Management .

Effective Date

The date and time when the item becomes effective. LN cannot use the item on any order or plan before the effective date. This allows you to define items before they are actually ordered or produced. The date is supplied by the Change Management (CHM) module of Data Management .

Change Controlled

If this check box is selected, you can use Change Management (CHM) change orders to control the item data and the effectivity dates of the item's BOM data and routing data.

This check box is selected by default if the Object Data Management (DM) check box is selected in the Implemented Software Components (tccom0100s000) session.

Effectivity Dates by CO

If you want to control the effectivity dates of the item's BOMs and routings through Data Management change orders, select this check box.

If the Change Management Allowed check box is selected and you clear this check box, LN applies the changes according to the approved change orders but does not record the effective dates. This allows you to track the changes that are made to the item, the BOM, and the routing of which the effective dates are not important.

Multiple COs

If this check box is selected, a single BOM line or routing operation can be controlled by more than one change order at a time. The first change order that is approved makes the BOM line or routing operation effective. If the Effectivity Dates by Change Order check box is selected, you can select or clear this check box.

Last Modification Date

The date the item data was last modified.

Configuration Group

The configurable item 's default configuration group.

Restrict Commingling and Transfers
