Parameter Definitions

Inventory parameters determine how you create the inventory database and how individual item records are created. Inventory parameters, as well as most of the contract parameters, are set in (LE1) Inventory Parameters screen. Some of these fields have a major influence on how your system operates. We recommend that you complete a certain number of these fields before going live.

 

Preset parameter options are provided for location 1 when you receive the DDMS system. This means that even if you make no changes to the field in the (LE1) screen, you can use the applications. However, you may determine that one or more of the preset options need to be changed to best suit the needs of your business, or that you need to set up additional locations.

 

You can set separate parameters for each general ledger location (profit center). Begin by verifying whether the preset options for location 1 are suitable for your business needs. When you have set the parameters for location 1, set up separate parameters for each additional location that you run differently than location 1. If you do not set up separate parameters for a particular location, the parameters set for location 1 are used for that location.
