Select Material > Part Package from the menu. |  |
The following screen will be displayed:
This screen is for specifying the kind of packaging parts must be in so they can be used with a certain kind of machine, processing, handling, etc. This is particularly helpful if parts can be packaged so automatic machines can accept them directly. This information is used in all Materials modules, including Material Requirements, Planning, and Purchasing. Part package examples are: reel, tube, tray, bulk, etc.
The user begins the entry of a new package by selecting the Add icon from the main toolbar, then entering the data in the window at the bottom of the page. When satisfied that the data has been entered correctly, the user may select the Save icon from the main toolbar. This will add the item to the list. An item may be deleted by highlighting it and selecting the Delete icon from the main toolbar.
These items may be sorted in any order by clicking on and dragging the boxes on the left side to the (vertical) position desired. This order will be the order displayed in the pull-down menus when using this list in other modules within the system. It is recommended that the most frequently used item be at the top of the list for your convenience.
