...
| Name | Description |

| ID | The alternate ID for the product. |
| Product ID Type | The type of alternate ID you are creating aka the reason you are creating it. This can be:
|
| Product Unit | Specifies which unit the alternate ID applies to, if this is different from the main product unit. For example, an inner barcode might apply to each unit, while an outer barcode might apply to a box of five Box 5 (5). To see more on units click here. |
| Site | The "Site" on alternate product IDs makes it possible to allow an alternate code to only be applicable for a specific site. This means if you have a transaction for a certain site and scan or search for the ID, it will only consider IDs that have a blank site or specifically for the site of the transaction. This feature can be used for a number of scenarios, including: - Allowing different quantities to be associated with the same barcode at different sites - Allowing the same barcode to be used on multiple products, depending on the site - Limiting the use of a product at a specific site |

Is Supply Flag | Modifies the behaviour of parts such that they do start on a machine immediately when shipped, but rather wait until FM Audit and/or inbound emails signal that the supply has been installed. There are basically two rules: If the check box for 'is supply'' is turned on, that means use the part based upon the triggers on the conditions from data that is fed thru either fm audit, email or external source. So if 'is supply' is on, only start the part once the toner level % or whatever triggers the next start date and end date is reached. Warning, if you turn it on, you must ensure that your data feed is active. |
| Expected Meter Count | A manual entry of what you expect the count to be for that meter part |
