Add and configure a dynamic material movement

A dynamic material movement item is a configurable item, similar to a material movement. However, where a material movement has a static source and destination - with a dynamic material movement, these values are configurable by expression.

You can create any number of dynamic material movement items. You can add and group dynamic material movements under the Material Movements folder. When you locate material movements in one folder, it is easier for you to organize and maintain them. You can use any number of Material Movement folders to separate material movements into logical groups.

Note: For dynamic material movements, both SourceDestinationClasses and MaterialDestinationClasses property values are required, no matter the type: Input/Internal/Output.

To add a dynamic material movement

1. Right-click the Material Movement folder or the Material Movements node, point to Add Item, point to Material Movements, and then click Dynamic Material Movement. A new Dynamic Material Movement item appears.

   

2. Rename the dynamic material movement with a meaningful name.

3. Configure the properties. For guidance in configuring the properties, see Dynamic material movement properties.
