Define Item Code
Explanation
A deferral item holds the maximum
delays in days and/or in an operational parameter. If the deferral list code
requires a list item definition, item codes with a maximum delay must be defined. If the default maximum delays have been defined on the
Categories
tab, you can
associate an item code with a category. Otherwise you must manually specify the
maximum delay in days and/or operational parameter. The items codes can then be associated with the appropriate part
revisions.
