The Material Class Assignments option is used to record the connections between the Material and the material classes it belongs to. Characteristics such as Unit Set, Customer/Supplier info and General Ledger Codes can be applied to the child material classes or the materials connected to this material class. In such cases, the same characteristics are transferred into the materials by creating Material Class Assignments.
In order to generate the Material Class Assignments, the Material to which the characteristics will be transferred must be selected in the Materials list. Then the Material Class Assignments option located in the right mouse button menu is selected. The Material Class Assignments page is in form of a table.
The code of the parent material class from which the characteristics will be transferred is entered into the Material Class Code field. The characteristics for which Material Class Assignments will be generated are grouped under the following titles:
- General
- Warehouse Parameters
- Plant Parameters
- Units
- Prices
- Suppliers
- G/L Codes
- Insp. Crit. Description
- Prod. Info
The parent class and the characteristics to be transferred for the selected material class are selected by checking the appropriate boxes in the Material Class Assignments table.
