Product classes are used to associate a part with a Cost of Goods Sold general ledger account and to define common parameters for similar parts (i.e., stockkeeping, selling, purchasing, and pricing units of measure, price code, VAT code). Although defined in the Part Master Maintenance conversation (DE100E), product classes are used for sales analysis purposes. By grouping parts under a certain product class, the user can analyze the cost of sales for like parts.
The Product Class Codes/Defaults category contains all valid product class codes used in the system. Default information for each product class is also defined. This is a required category.
PRODUCT CLASS CODE
Optional. A blank product class code should be used to define default product class information. Only one record with a blank code is allowed. Although the category is required, this field is optional because it is used for inventory accounting purposes only in order to determine the cost of goods sold.
