Creating a Generic Buy Line for Lot Items

Because lot item materials are purchased directly from vendors and costs are determined at the time of purchase, lot items do not require buy lines. However, the system requires that you assign all products a buy line, so you can create a generic buy line for use with your lot items.

To create a generic buy line for a lot item:

1. From the Purchase>Maintenance menu, select Buy Line Maintenance to display the Buy Line Maintenance window.

2. From the File menu, select New to display a prompt.

3. At the Enter new buy line id prompt, enter LOTITEM.

4. Click OK to return to the Buy Line Maintenance window.

The system populates the Buy Line ID field with LOTITEM.

5. In the Description field, enter Generic Lot Item Buy Line.

6. Save the buy line and exit the window.
