The “Set Options” page appears.

The system displays the following.

Date Format

The format in which the date fields are displayed in this screen. This format is displayed from the "User Preferences" business component based on the login user ID. In case the format is not defined, the system displays the date format from the Enterprise Modeling business component by default

Default Num. Type for Auto PR 

Use the drop-down list box to select the default numbering type for automatic purchase requests generated for parts that are required to execute an engineering order. The system displays all the “Active” numbering types defined for “Purchase Requisition” transaction in the “Document Numbering Class” business component.

By default, the system sets this field with the default numbering type set for Purchase Requisition transaction. If default numbering type is not set, then the first numbering type in alphabetical order would be defaulted.

Default Standard Purchase Notes in PR

Use the drop-down list box to indicate whether the standard notes of type “Purchase” defined for the part in “Maintain Notes” activity of the “Part Administration” component must be displayed as the Comments for the Part in “Purchase Requisition”. The system displays the options “Yes” and “No”.

  • Yes – Select “Yes” to default the standard purchase notes as Comments.

  • No – Select “No” to allow the user to enter the Comments.

By default, the system sets this field as ‘No’.
