Access a Receiver

Before you begin

  • In Plant Applications Web Client, in the Property Definition application:
    • Create a property definition named OrgCode under the Erp App category and the MaterialLot Import group.
    • Create property definitions for all the additional properties of a receiver (such as shelf life, heat code, date code) under the Receiving Inspection category and the Additional Details group.
    For instructions on creating a property definition, refer to About Creating a Property Definition.
  • In Plant Applications Administrator, define the values for the OrgCode property for each unit. To do so, access the unit's properties, and enter the values in the Extended Information field.
You can import a material lot from an ERP application only if:
  • The Material Lot Import Document (MLID) contains the required properties. For a sample MLID, refer to the ERP Integration Guide.
  • The value of the OrgCode property matches one of the values that you have defined in Plant Applications Administrator.
  • The units of measure and the OrgCode combination for a material lot is unique.
