| # To set up the item data To define the item data, carry out the following steps: If you want to use segmented item codes, start the Item Code Segmentation (tcibd0500m000) session to define the item code segments. The item code segments must have been previously set up in the Segmented Domains (ttgfd4122m000) session in Enterprise Server. For more information, refer to Segmented item codes. Start the Item Groups (tcmcs0123m000) session to define the item groups. Every item must belong to an item group. The item group determines the default currency that is used to calculate the item cost price. Use the Unit Sets (tcmcs0106m000) session to define the unit sets required for the items and link units to the unit sets in the Units by Unit Set (tcmcs0112m000) session. For details, see To use unit sets. Start the Items - General Defaults (tcibd0502m000) session to define default item data for items of a specific item type within each item group. In this way, you do not need to specify all the item data for every individual item. See also To change an item's default data. Start the Items - General (tcibd0501m000) session to define the item data for each item. If you defined default item data for the selected item group and item type, LN enters the default data. You can use the default values or change the values as required. The item data includes, for example: The item type. The item's unit set. The item's inventory unit. Whether or not the item is a lot item. Start the Conversion Factors (tcibd0103m000) session to define the conversion factor of the item's alternative units to the item's inventory unit. You can define conversion factors that apply to item groups or to individual items. For more information, refer to To use conversion factors. Use the Items - Ordering Defaults (tcibd2501m000) and the Items - Ordering (tcibd2500m000) session to specify the item ordering data. For more information, refer to Item ordering data.
