How to use CadConnect – Detail screen – Data Field definitions
In the line detail display you have several columns and fields available depending on your needs.
The configuration of the display is done using the standard BC function Personalize
- Type
Type is normally derived from what you insert – item, routing etc.
Please notice you can redefine a new item into a Production BOM (Phantom item) type. By default a type “Item” will be created.
Doing this process of course depend on having a bill of material which shall be turned into a production bill of material
- Level
System maintained. For referance to specify the structure
- No
Item number / Work Center no. / Machine Center no. / Routing no.
- No 2
Item number 2
- Description
Item description / Operation description / Routing description
- Description 2
Item description 2
- Additional text
Additional text is for CadConnect use only
- Template Routing no.
You can type / select an existing routing no. in this field to be used as the routing for the item. The routing operations will be added on the lines below depending on Setup
- Item type
This field can have 3 different values – Production, Purchase or Assembly
When you work with a BOM structure the system will find the most appropriate Type based on BOM relations. However you can overrule this value, in the field “Item Replenishemnt system” for existing items, the value from the item card will be shown
• Item Replenishment System
This field can have 3 different values – Production, Purchase or Assembly
If you want to overrule the values calculated by CadConnect in “Item Type” you can do this by using this field. When creating new items, the value from this field “Item Replenishment System” will be transferred to the Item Card in BC to the field “Replenishment System”.
The function can be relevant, if you create an item with a BOM but you normally purchase the item.
