Item Specification > Item Specifications in Inventory Maintenance

Specification features for inventory item records are set up in the Settings Page of the Inventory Maintenance function window. Inventory items with specification features may be created using the Inventory Control, Sales Order and Accounts Receivable modules.

Note: You must set up specification features at the time you create the inventory item record. You can no longer change the setting in the Use Specification checkbox and the values entered in the Inventory Specification area once the inventory record is saved.

To set up specifications to inventory items, perform the following procedures:

1.Access the Inventory Maintenance function from the Inventory group under the Maintenance menu.

2.Enter the item's information in the required fields of the Information Page, Warehouse Page, Unit of Measurement Page, Pricing Page, and Remarks/Image Page.
