This activity is used to enter a package part. Package parts are a structure or a set of parts, which could consist of different types of sales parts.
When a customer order line is formed for the package part, the sourcing
option entered will be used as a default. In the customer order line, this
value can be modified. Two sourcing options can be defined for the
Package Part.
1. Not Supplied: The part is not being supplied. On the customer order
line, this is displayed as Pkg in the Supply Code field.
2. Primary Supplier Direct: The part will be bought from the primary
supplier, who will deliver them directly to the customer. On the customer
order line, this displays as Internal Purchase Direct (when the
primary supplier is an internal supplier) or Purchase Order Direct
(when the primary supplier is an external supplier) in the Supply Code
field. Entering a Non Inventory purchase Part is mandatory for this option.
