Assign a Master Purchasing Activity

Assigning a master purchasing activity to any purchasing activity/PO index allows the user to enter the cost for a standard cost item just once in one area or Area 0 (Master Area). As a result, the user can access the single cost entry from any model or option in which the item is included. The one cost entry is accessed based on a specific look up hierarchy.

 

See Cost Lookup Hierarchy for more information.
