SAP Business One allows the user to store the details of all Items and Services
that the organization either purchases, sells, or stores in the inventory using
the item master data. You use the item master data to add, update, search, and
maintain item data. The concept of using
an item master is to avoid human errors, save time, and eliminate repetition of
data. The tabs that are present in the item master data are: -
·
General Tab: - This
tab includes general details relating to the item, that are relevant to all
item types. Example, shipping type, remarks….
·
Purchasing Tab: - This tab contains all purchase-related information for an item. It is in
this tab that we define how the item is purchased, i.e. the minimum quantity,
unit of measure and preferred vendor for the item.
·
Sales Tab: - In
this tab all sales-relates information for an item is stored. Sales unit of measure,
items per sales, item dimensions are some of the examples of the data captured in
this tab.
·
Inventory Tab: - This is the tab where information regarding warehouses are stored and
defined. You get a detailed view of your inventory status of the selected item.
The detailed view of your inventory status includes ordered quantity, In-stock quantity,
committed quantity (the quantity you have promised your customers) and available
quantity (In-stock + ordered – committed = available qty).
·
Planning Data Tab: - This tab holds all information related to MRP and production. Example, planning
method, procurement method, Order multiple……
· Properties Tab: - Properties tab is where you define
any extra characteristics that belong to the item, which has not been defined anywhere
else. Example, if your item is a mobile, its unique colour or its internal
specification can be stored as the item’s property.
