Part Attributes Entry

The PART ATTRIBUTES ENTRY screen is used to assign attributes to parts transported as "dangerous goods". 


For multi-store, any setups in any store saves the attributes to the same part across all stores where the part is "in-file" in the store.


Menu Path: Inventory, Part Entry, Part Attributes Entry, PART ATTRIBUTES ENTRY screen

 

 

Note: the Transportation of Dangerous Goods Classification ('TDG Class Code') setting is used for Canadian stores. U.S. Department of Transportation ('DOT') codes are tracked in the USA.

To enter or edit a setup:

Enter a Line Code in the 'Line' field and press the 'Enter key' or click the 'Line' button to open the 'Browse Line Codes' window to search for and select a line code, and enter a part number in the 'P/N' field and press the 'Enter' key or click the 'P/N' button to open the 'Find Part' window to search for and select a part number.

 

With a line code and part number in focus, the screen setups are enabled, the part's 'DESCRIPTION 1'/'DESCRIPTION 2' display, as well as any setups previously saved.

 

Note: Consult published hazmat documentation for setup information. 
 

Product Type

Click the button to open the 'Browse Product Types' pop-up, or manually enter one in the text box.

 

If the entered value is currently in the list of acceptable values, the application accepts the value. Note: The 'Save' button must still be clicked to save the entered 'Product Type' in the system.


If the entered value is currently not in the list of acceptable values, the application displays a prompt pop-up indicating that the entered value is not valid, and then displays the 'Browse Product Types' pop-up to choose an acceptable value.

 

 

The 'Browse Product Types' pop-up opens with the product types set up in the SYSTEM GENERAL SETUP screen.
