SM-P-E Define Inventory User Defined Fields

General Program Description (Available in Evo-ERP only)

Use this program to define up to 40 different fields to be assigned to Item Numbers and visible in IN-A  Inventory Inquiry and IN-B  Enter Inventory and available to be added to the RTM for various reports.  These fields are defined by specifying the starting position and length of a substring of the MTIC.PROD.SUBST[2], MTIC.PROD.SUBST[3], MTIC.PROD.SUBST[4], or MTIC.PROD.SUBST[5] field, assigning a descriptive label to the field, and the position it will appear on the IN-A and IN-B screen (User Defined Tab, GUI Tab view only).  The MTIC.PROD.SUBST fields are each 25 characters long so there are a total of 100 characters available.

General Program Operation

The first time the program is loaded, it will automatically define 4 fields, each using the first 10 characters of the available MTIC.PROD.SUBST fields.  You can edit these to change the screen position, Description and field size or you can delete any of them or add more.  The UDF Number indicates the screen position which is arranged in 4 columns of 10.   Position 1 is the upper left, position 31 is the upper right and 40 is the lower right.   The UDF Label is the description of the field that will appear on the screen, the inventory field defines which of the available fields will be used and the Start position and length defines which characters in the field are taken for this User Defined field.

So long as at least one UDF is defined, you can add more up to the 40 available.  If all of them are deleted, then the next time the program loads, it will automatically load the same 4 fields as defined above.
