Maintain User Options – A summary of the activity

This activity enables you to define values for the user defined option fields in the various commercial documents such as "Purchase Request", "Purchase Order", "Blanket Purchase Order", "Release Slip", "Goods Receipt", "Repair Order", "Request for Quotation", "Quotation", "Loan Order", "Rental Order", "Loan / Rental Receipt" and "Subcontract Order". Apart from the other details specified for commercial documents, you can also specify user-defined details such as details that you might want to capture in the document but are not available in the system, at the time of creation.

You can define the user-defined option values for a specific document, by providing an identifier and a description for it. The user-defined values should be unique to a document type. These user-defined values are later assigned to documents using these codes. You can also specify the status for these values.

The system updates the user-defined values for a document and stores the name of the login user and the current server date as the created date.
