PCO Maintenance
• PCO creation can be broken down into the following steps:
• Enter Header
• Add Text (optional)
• Specify Changes
• Enter Trailer
Direct Item Master Access, a function under the Item Data Maintenance Menu, gives you access to all items in the database. The modifications you perform using Direct Item Master Access take place in the item master table, not in the PCO.
Important: This function is the only function in PCO Maintenance that directly affects QAD EE production tables.
