Package Designs (ICPA_IM09)

The Package Designs (ibis_icpa.im09) view allows you to define package designs that will be applied to products in the Products (ici1.im13) table. You can create a package design code and then apply that code to all products that have that design for easy identification. For example, if you stock products with a floral design on the packaging, you can assign a package design code of 'floral' to all products with this design.

The following list defines every field available in the package designs (icpa) table in alphabetical order:

  • Company - the company field is available when you create a new record. The company defaults to the company assigned to your user id in the Session Parameters view. You can change the default company during the creation process only. Once the record is created, the company to which the record is associated displays in the General section (at the top of the view).

  • Created On - displays the name of the user who created the record you are viewing or maintaining. May not be overridden.

  • Created By - displays the date on which the record that you are creating or maintaining was created. May not be overridden. May also represent the creation date of the records you are attempting to retrieve.

  • Modification Counter - this field is not maintainable. The date and time the record was last modified.

  • Modified By - this field is not maintainable. The user or system process that last modified the record.

  • Modified On - this field is not maintainable. The date on which the record was last modified.

  • Package Design - enter a package design code. You can enter a maximum of 10 alpha-numeric characters in this field.

  • Package Design Description - enter a description of the package design. You can enter a maximum of 30 alpha-numeric characters in this field.
