Use

You can enter a standard component type for each specification. This is proposed to you automatically by the system as the component type when you enter the specification as the component of a composition. This makes data entry more efficient.

Example

By assigning the standard component type SOLVENT to the specification for a solvent that is used frequently in many compositions in your enterprise, you do not need to enter this component type every time you create a composition that contains the solvent.

Prerequisites

In the IMG activity Specify Specification Types in Customizing for Product Safety, you have defined the characteristic for the standard component type for the specification types of the component.

Features

You can overwrite the proposed standard component type.

If you have not entered a standard component type for a component specification or if you have not defined the characteristic for the standard component type in Customizing as described under Prerequisites, the system uses the component type you set as the default component type in Customizing for Product Safety in the IMG activity Specify Component Types for Compositions as the standard component type.
