Item matrix templates must be created for segments 2 and 3. An item matrix template consists of a header (template code and description) and the details. The details are sequenced in intervals of 10 and consist of a value, description and column heading. The column heading will appear in the Item matrix panels as follows:
- Column headings for segment 2 values will appear vertically in the Item matrix panels.
- Column headings for segment 3 values will appear horizontally in the Item matrix panels.
When you eventually build (create) the matrix base item, the item code for the matrix base item will be derived from what you manually enter for segment 1 and the applicable Template codes you select from this file for Segments 2 and 3.
When you then create the matrix items from the matrix base item, the matrix item codes will be derived as follows:
Segment 1 of the matrix base item plus all combinations of the detail values for the templates entered for Segments 2 and 3.
