Setting a Default Value for Creating ISB Records
The Create ISB field in End User Control, illustrated in
End User Control (11.9.24), also affects installed base updates.
End User Control (11.9.24)
Create ISB sets the default value for the Create ISB field for new end users. Create ISB for an end user determines, in turn, whether the system normally adds items associated with the end user to the installed base.
This field gives you more control over how items are added to the installed base. If you usually add items to the installed base regardless of the end user, set Create ISB to Yes and this value will flow to the functions that create ISB records. To more tightly control ISB updates so that records are created only for a predefined set of end users, set this field to No and change the field in End User Data Maintenance.
This setting is especially important if you are shipping sales order line items to the installed base. The system looks at Create ISB in the control program whenever a ship-to address is not defined as an end user. If you want to add items by default to the installed base in this situation, make sure Create ISB is Yes in the control program.
