Calculate Item Low Level Code

Overview

The Item Calculate Low-Level function determines the hierarchical levels of items based on their Item Formulas. This function updates the Low-Level Code field on the Item card, which is crucial for various other processes in GoldFinch. Keeping the Low-Level Code field up-to-date is essential for:

• Rolling up Item Costs.

• Calculating Work Lines for Work Orders.

• Running the Supply Plan (MRP) function.

Setup

GoldFinch has a default setting for Max Formula Level at 5 levels. This can be adjusted (up to 50) in the Company Setup if necessary.

Running the Item Calculate Low-Level Code Routine

To run the Item Calculate Low-Level Code routine, follow these steps:

• Open the App Launcher and search for Administration.

• In the Inventory section, click on the Item Calculate Low-Level Code routine.

After Running the Routine

Once the Calculate Low-Level Code routine has been executed, all non-blocked items should be assigned a Low-Level Code (e.g., 0, 1, 2, 3, etc.).

• If any items have a blank Low-Level Code, it indicates that errors may have occurred during the calculation.
