The Consumable Element
The consumable element loads inventory from the employee's location set to appear on mobile.
This data is used on the consumables, salesorder and return tabs.
The base product is set up to load these types of items:
Inventory Item
Serialized Inventory Item
Lot Numbered Inventory Item
Assembly Item
Serialized Assembly Item
Lot Numbered Assembly Item
Only items available in the employee's location and with the Field Service Show On Mobile box checked will be loaded. Item Groups are also loaded if the box is checked, but location availability isn't validated.
If you change your inventory or item features, the searches here will also change. Don't copy this section between accounts. Use the config preview as your starting point. You'll see different search labels below, but it's best to view the code directly in the account using the Configuration Preview feature.
