What is the difference between a substitution and a transformation?

The difference between a substitution and a transformation is described in the table below:

Substitution

Transformation

An ident can be substituted with another ident.

An ident can be transformed to another ident.

The substituted quantity of both idents is 1 (you cannot change the quantity).

The transformation quantity should be 1 and the Trans Qty2 should be greater than 1.

The unit of both idents is the same (determined by the CIP m_pck_req_custom.qty_unit (original_ident)).

The unit of both idents is the same (determined by the CIP m_pck_req_custom.qty_unit (original_ident)).

  1. On the Home page, click Site > Setup > Allow Substitutions.

For Transformation type, the ident entered in the Original Ident Code cell can be transformed to the ident entered in the Subst/Trans Ident Code cell.

  8. Type the quantity for the substitution or transformation in the Quantity cell.

    In case of substitution,the substituted quantity of both idents is 1 (you cannot change the quantity).

  9. In case of transformation, type the transformation quantity in the Transform Quantity From and Transform Quantity To cells.

  10. Select the unit for the substitution or transformation in the Unit cell.
