Global options in FactoryLogix Office affect how users interact with FactoryLogix features and functions and control all aspects of the system. Global option settings combined with user roles and permissions allow different types of access to all areas of the system. Administrators access FactoryLogix global options in the Settings area of the FactoryLogix Office client application.
Note
Only a member of the Administrator group can configure default values for global options.

Process Import | BOM Publishing - Synchronization| Note |
|---|
| :You can set each of the following options to do one of the following: Never Override (never synchronize), Always Override (always synchronize), Update Missing Information Only (only update missing part number information), Prompt User (Side-by Side Comparison) (prompt users to compare part numbers and synchronize manually before publishing).
The following options are used when publishing a BOM:
Internal Vendor Part Number (IPNVPN) Synchronization - Determines Internal Vendor part number synchronization number synchronization process during BOM publishing. Customer Manufacturer Part Number (CPNMPN) Synchronization - Determines Customer Manufacturer part number synchronization process during BOM publishing. Vendor Internal Part Number (VPNIPN) Synchronization - Determines Vendor Internal part number synchronization number synchronization process during BOM publishing. Manufacturer Internal Part Number (MPNIPN) Relationship Synchronization - Determines Manufacturer Internal part number synchronization number relationship synchronization process during BOM publishing. Internal Customer Part Number (IPNCPN) Relationship Synchronization - Determines Internal Customer part number relationship synchronization number synchronization process during BOM publishing. AVL Strategy Maintains a global Approved Vendor List (AVL) for each part number (IPN). The supplied AVL is used for part matching only. Users must enable the Automatically merge AVLs from imported BOMs option to add imported AVLs to the global AVL. Maintains a BOM-level AVL for each part number (IPN). An AVL is created against the BOM line item associated with each part number.
Automatically merge AVLs from Imported BOMs - When set to True, merges all imported AVLs with the existing global AVL. (The global AVL consists of all IPN-VPN relationships in the Part Library.) Automatically merge AMLs from Imported BOMs - When set to True, merges all imported AMLs with the existing global AML. (The Global AML consists of all IPN-MPN relationships in the Part Library.) AML Strategy Maintains a global Part Library Approved Manufacturer List (AML) for each part number (IPN). The supplied AML is used for part matching only. Users must enable the Automatically merge AMLs from imported BOMs option to add imported AMLs to the global AML. Maintains a BOM-level AML for each part number (IPN). An AML is created against the BOM line item associated to each part number.
Automatically merge AMLs from Imported BOMs - When set to True, merges all imported AMLs with the existing global AML (The Global AML consists of all IPN-MPN relationships in the Part Library.)Alternate IPN Strategy Maintains a global Part Library Alternate IPN for each part number (IPN). When enabled, all imported Alt IPNs are merged with the existing global Alt IPNs. (The global Alt IPN is the IPN-Alt IPN relationship in the Part Library.) Maintains a BOM-level Alt IPN for each part number (IPN). An Alt IPN is created against the BOM line item associated with each part number.
