What it is for​

The Item Structure field on the item in a company is hidden in the standard configuration, and the item screen does not load the structure, so today this is a reference list.

Every field in plain words​

How to configure it​

There is nothing to configure beyond the fields above. Which fields are shown, required or hidden can be changed per company by the consultant in the screen configuration.

Scenarios​

  • Nobody asks for it. Leave it empty.

What it is connected to​

If something looks wrong​

  • "... already exists" on Save. Another structure already uses this code.
