IC08.1 - Generic Names

Use this form to set up generic names for an item group. Use generic names to
group similar inventory items together. 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.
