Configuring General Counter Attributes

You can configure the following information in the General Counter Attributes section:

• Item

• Production reason

• Storage location to store produced quantities

• Lot and sublot numbers of produced items

• Date and time to log a production transaction

The item that is configured in this section is used as the production item for the job. You can override the production item by configuring a different item and BOM position other than the current BOM position that is configured for the job.

A value of 0 for the BOM position indicates a produced item and a negative value indicates a by-product.
