Setting the Material Type Display Sequence
You can specify the order in which material types are listed in Material Type menus throughout the system.
To set the display sequence:
- On the Material Types screen, use the Seq text boxes to enter the desired
display sequence for each material type.
- You can enter any number from “0” to “999999” as a display sequence number.
- You can enter a unique display sequence number for each material type, or,
you can use the same display sequence number for multiple material types.
If the same display sequence number is used for more than one material type, the associated material types are displayed in alphabetic order.
- You can enter display sequence numbers in numeric order (1, 2, 3, etc.), or, you can skip numbers (10, 20, 30, etc.) to allow for insertion of added material types between existing material types without the need to re-sequence the entire list.
- When display sequence numbers have been entered for all listed material
types, click the Submit button to save your changes.
You must enter a display sequence number for all listed material types. If you do not enter a display sequence number for a given material type, the display sequence value for the material type will revert to “0” when you submit your changes.
