Accelerator for Retail Packaging Hierarchy

If the product data received from PDX or the GPC standard contains packaging information, then it will be created as a separate packaging object per packaging hierarchy level. Data Management Accelerator for Retail is pre-configured with support for pack, case, and pallet, which will be linked from the largest unit to the smallest unit with the quantity of next lower package stored as metadata on the reference. The 'Each' is represented by the external source record.

The packaging objects are modeled as products in Accelerator for Retail. They will be categorized directly under either external packaging or internal packaging in the separate packaging hierarchy without further categorization.

The packaging hierarchy can be viewed in a product details page, in the 'packaging hierarchy' tab.
