Specifications on Pages

As a IT Manager
I want to add the Colour specification as a visible field on the Item Card
So that users can see and set the item's colour without opening the separate Specifications page

Setup:

1. Open the Information Code Card for COLOUR and choose Specification on Pages.
2. Add a new line: Table = Item, Field = SCB MDI Field 1, Related Information Code = COLOUR, Master Data Field Type = Information Value.
3. Save. The Colour field now appears on the Item Card and Item List.

As a IT Manager
I want to embed the Weight (kg) specification as a numeric field directly on the Item Card
So that the weight is visible and editable without opening the specification page

Setup:

1. Open the Information Code Card for WEIGHT and choose Specification on Pages.
2. Add a new line: Table = Item, Field = SCB MDI Field 2, Related Information Code = WEIGHT, Master Data Field Type = Value.
3. Save. The Weight field appears on the Item Card and accepts numeric input.

As a IT Manager
I want to show the item's Material specification directly on Sales Order lines
So that sales order processors can confirm the material being ordered without leaving the order page

Setup:

1. Open Specification on Pages setup and add a new line.
2. Set Table = Sales Line, Field = SCB MDI Field 1, Related Information Code = MATERIAL, Master Data Field Type = Information Value.
3. Save. The Material field appears on Sales Order line rows.

Note: For document line tables, the Master Data Table Type is automatically set to Master Data on Documents, meaning the value is stored in the document data rather than the item's master specification entry.

As a IT Manager
I want to ensure that the new Colour field on the Item Card is populated with existing colour specifications for all items that already have a colour assigned
So that the field is not empty for items that were already set up before the mapping was created

Setup:

1. After adding the Colour mapping on the Specifications on Pages setup page, select the mapping line.
2. Choose the Update Field Value action.
3. The app reads all existing Colour Information Entries and populates the corresponding SCB MDI Field on each item record.

As a Business Manager
I want to allow users to type a new colour value directly in the embedded Colour field on the Item Card even if it is not yet in the predefined list
So that users are not blocked when they encounter a new value that has not been added to the Information Values yet

Setup:

1. Open the Information Code Card for COLOUR.
2. Enable Allow Users to Add Information Values.
3. Save. When users enter a value in the embedded field that is not in the list, the app creates a new Information Value automatically.

As a IT Manager
I want to ensure that the embedded Surface Treatment field on the Item Card only shows valid options based on the Material Type already set on the same card
So that users cannot select incompatible combinations even when working in the embedded fields

Setup:

1. Ensure Logical Dependencies rules are configured between MATERIAL-TYPE and SURFACE-TREATMENT.
2. Embed both codes on the Item Card via Specifications on Pages.
3. No additional setup is needed — dependency filtering applies automatically on embedded fields.

As a IT Manager
I want to show the item's Marketing Tagline description as an embedded field on the Item Card
So that the tagline is visible and editable inline without opening the Texts specification page

Setup:

1. Open Specification on Pages setup.
2. Add a line: Table = Item, Field = SCB MDI Field 3, Related Information Code = TAGLINE, Master Data Field Type = Description.
3. Save. The Description value of the Tagline specification entry appears in the embedded field.

As a IT Manager
I want to remove the embedded Colour field from the Item Card because the team prefers to use the full Specifications page
So that the item card is less cluttered and the specification is managed through the dedicated page

Setup:

1. Open Specification on Pages setup and find the Colour mapping for the Item table.
2. Delete the line. The system will ask whether to clear the values currently stored in the SCB MDI Field slot on item records.
3. Confirm if you want the field to be cleared, or decline to retain the data while removing the setup.

Note: Deleting a mapping clears the corresponding SCB MDI Field values on master records, but the underlying Information Entry records are not deleted — the specifications remain accessible via the Information Setup page.

As a IT Manager
I want to show three separate fields on the Item Card for the CERTIFICATION code — one field per certification type (CE, UL, ISO-9001) — each showing whether that specific certification is assigned
So that users can see and set each certification independently without opening the full Specifications page

Setup:

1. Ensure the CERTIFICATION Information Code has Allow multiple Config Values enabled.
2. Open Specification on Pages and add the first mapping line:
   • Table = Item, Field = SCB MDI Field 1, Related Information Code = CERTIFICATION, Master Data Field Type = Value, Information Value = CE.
3. Add a second line:
   • Table = Item, Field = SCB MDI Field 2, Related Information Code = CERTIFICATION, Master Data Field Type = Value, Information Value = UL.
4. Add a third line:
   • Table = Item, Field = SCB MDI Field 3, Related Information Code = CERTIFICATION, Master Data Field Type = Value, Information Value = ISO-9001.
5. Save. Three separate fields now appear on the Item Card, each linked to a different Information Value for the same code.

Note: When mapping the same Information Code to multiple slots, all slots must use the same Master Data Field Type (Value or Description — not Information Value), and each slot must have a distinct Information Value set. You cannot mix Information Value type with Value/Description type for the same code. The Information Value field must be filled in — leaving it blank on a second slot for the same code will cause a validation error.

As a IT Manager
I want to show the embedded Colour field on the Item Card with the label "Product Colour" instead of the default Information Code description "Colour"
So that the label matches the terminology used in our company's item card layout

Setup:

1. Open the Specification on Pages setup list and find the Colour mapping for the Item table.
2. In the Information Code Description column (labelled "Field Description" on the page), change the value from the auto-populated "Colour" to "Product Colour".
3. Save. The embedded field on the Item Card will now show "Product Colour" as its label.

Note: The Information Code Description field is auto-populated from the Related Information Code's description when the code is first selected. Editing it here only changes the label on the embedded page field — it does not affect the Information Code's own description or any other part of the app.
