System parameter to set the layout of reports for products
The various reports for products (for example Product requirements, Product costing) can be presented in different layouts. The options are:-
Sort into alphanumeric sequence
Sort by category (parts, fittings, operations)
Select the option via the radio buttons
The items in the product reports (product requirements and product costing) are typically sorted in alphabetical order of part code but this can mix up parts, fittings, and operations if they are not coded to prevent this.
The list below is coded so that a special sort order is not needed. Fittings begin with the code letter Y and operations begin with the code letter Z. An alphabetical sort is therefore sufficient.
BU05/1 - part 1
PMB/3 - part 2
RX4/3 - part 3
YF1 - fitting 1
YF2 - fitting 2
ZTM1 - operation 1
ZOPR - operation 2
In the following list the codes reflect an order system and cannot be changed to reflect parts, fittings, and costs. An alphabetical sort mixes up the categories.
Alphabetical sort Category sort
SO/001 part 1 SO/001 part 1
SO/003 fitting 1 SO/004 part 2
SO/004 part 2 SO/009 part 3
S2/008 operation 1 SO/003 fitting 1
SO/009 part 3 SA/12 fitting 2
SA/12 fitting 2 S2/008 operation 1
SB/15 operation 2 SB/15 operation 2
The order of categories is fixed and is: parts >fittings>operations
