IC08


IC08.1 - Generic Names

**Form Purpose
Use Generic Names (IC08.1) to define generic names for an item group. Use
generic names to group similar inventory items together.

**More Information
You assign generic names to items in IC11.1 (Item Master) or IC10.2 (Item
Master and Location). Generic names print on selected inventory reports and
you can access item information by generic name in IC30.1 (Item Search). To
discontinue use of a generic name, change the status to Inactive. A generic
name cannot be deleted unless it is first removed from all items to which it
is assigned.
