Group attributes (form)

Applies To: Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Feature Pack, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

Click Inventory management > Setup > Batch attributes > Batch attribute groups. Select the batch attribute group, and then click the Group attributes button at the top of the form.

Use this form to view, add, and maintain batch attributes for a batch attribute group. Batch attribute groups let you assign multiple attributes to an inventory batch in one process, instead of having to add each attribute individually. However, the attribute values must be the same for all items in the group. For example, if the pH attribute value for the group is between 6.8 and 7.0, then the pH value for each item in the group must be within this range.

Description	View or enter the description for the batch attribute.
Tolerance action	View or select the action to take when an Integer or Fraction attribute value falls outside the specified minimum and maximum range. The tolerance actions are as follows: Warning ─ Issues a warning if an attribute does not fall in the minimum and maximum range, or if the increment is not valid. This action lets you process your input. Not allowed ─ Issues an error to alert you of an invalid entry. Your input is rejected.
Minimum	View or enter the minimum value in the range for attribute types Integer and Fraction.
Maximum	View or enter the maximum value in the range for attribute types Integer and Fraction.
Increment	View or enter the increment that determines the attribute values that you can enter in the Minimum and Maximum fields. For example, if the increment is 5 and the minimum and maximum range is 1 to 30, you can enter the attribute values of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30.
Target	View or enter the optimal value for the batch attribute. If a target is specified for a batch attribute and the attribute is tied to a quality test, this value represents the outcome that you want from testing.
