Item classes

You can use the Item Classes module to create and maintain an item class.

When you open the Item Classes workspace tab, a list of all the existing item classes is shown.

By default, the Item Classes module is in the Product Definition group in the Navigation Bar. For more information on groups and modules, see Groups and modules.

An item class is a logical grouping of items that share common characteristics, such as physical properties and whether they are produced, consumed, or both.

An item class contains all similar items. For example, the class Packaging Material can contain all items that are packed in Area 1 at the plant floor.
