Mapping Optional Fields in Inter-Entity Trade
If you want the Optional Fields from an OE Order to flow through to the PO created by IY Trade, you must use the same Optional Field names in OE and PO.
The Optional Fields in IY Trade work as follows:
If the Optional Field with the same name is defined at the same 'level' (e.g. O/E and P/O Header or O/E Detail and P/O Detail) on both the source and target documents, then the Optional Field value is copied across.
If the source document has a header Optional Field called 'COLOR' and the target document has a header Optional Field called 'COLOR' - then the Optional Field value is copied from the source to the target document.
If the source document has a detail Optional Field called 'COLOR' and the target document has a detail Optional Field called 'COLOR' - then the Optional Field value is copied across from the source to the target document.
Tip: It is recommended that the Optional Fields are always configured to 'Auto Insert' and have 'Value set' = Yes.
