You can use the Product Lifecycle Management module to update data for products and product/location records. To do this, you must set up tasks to store the product data. The tasks must be assigned the Product workflow type and Product workflow level.
To create a workflow definition with tasks that will update product data:
In Lifecycle Task Maintenance, create tabs and sections in which to display tasks to store product data. If you want to update data for a specific location, enter the location for the tabs and/or sections.
Create tasks to store product data. When creating the tasks, select a section or tab created in step 1, then select the task format, and finally select the product or product/location field in the Update Field field.
In Lifecycle Definition Maintenance, create a workflow definition, and include the tasks you created in step 2 in the workflow definition diagram.
Users can now launch product workflows that use the created workflow definition. The users can update data for products after entering the required data for the product, and marking the tasks completed.
Note If a user wants to enter data for a field that requires a unit of measure or additional information (e.g., an effective date for a specific price), they must use a vertical bar (|) character to separate the data, and enter the additional information after the vertical bar. For example, to enter a height of 5.5 for the Each unit of measure, the user would enter 5.5 | Each.
