Options for setting up item master

You can create a speed entry form to customize your item setup process. When you create a speed entry form, you determine the fields that are required and also the sequence of the fields that display on the form. The speed entry form lets you specify item information and maintain item master and item location files at one time.

Before you can create a speed entry form, you must load the dictionary setup file. Run Dictionary Setup (IC180) to load fields used in the Item Master and Item Location files.

  1. Access Item Formats (IC10.1).
  2. Select the company.
  3. Specify the format code that is associated with the format you want to create.
  4. Define the field sequence for this format.
  5. Select the Add form action.
  6. Add items on the speed entry form, Item Master and Location (IC10.2).
