Use this optional subtask to enter data from user-defined fields for a specific part.
Note: You must first set up the labels that
display for each type of user-defined field in the Item
User-Defined Labels screen before assigning this information to a
part. |
Set up this screen when initializing part information and after you have established data in the Item User-Defined Labels screen.
This non-editable field displays the data type that was defined in the Item User-Defined Labels screen. The options are:
"D" (Date) to allow entry of only a date
"N" (Numeric) to allow entry of only a number
"T" (Text) to allow entry of alphanumeric text for a selected line in the Values field
This non-editable field displays the labels created for this user-defined code in the Item User-Defined Labels screen.
If a line's Data Type is "T" (Text) and the Validated Text field is "Y" (Yes), enter, or use Lookup to select, a value that was created for the label in the Validated Text subtask of the Item User-Defined Labels screen.
If a line's Data Type is "T" (Text), the Validated Text field is "N" (No), and the Costpoint Validation Field is not populated, you can enter any alphanumeric text in the Values field. However, if the Costpoint Validation Field is populated with an existing data table name, enter, or use Lookup to select the date you choose from that data table.
If a line's Data Type is "N" (Numeric), you can enter a numeric value in this field.
If a line's Data Type is "D" (Date), you can enter a date in this field in DD/MM/YYYY format.
If the Required field is "Y" (Yes) for any given line, you must populate the Values field in accordance with the selected line's Data Type.
If the line's Data Type is "T" (Text) and the Costpoint Validation Field was populated in the Item User-Defined Labels screen, this column displays the value from the Costpoint Validation Field (the Costpoint field that is the source for acceptable entries in the Values field for this row).
This field will display "Y" (Yes) if you created special text items for this row in the Validated Text subtask of the Item User-Defined Labels screen.
These items will be available in Lookup. "N" (No) in this column indicates that no special items were created for this row.
This field will display "Y" (Yes) if this item is required for the project and "N" (No) if this item is not required for the project.
Select the desired label and click the Autoload pushbutton to apply it to the part.
* A red asterisk denotes a required field.
