Commodity Group

Commodities that show up in the Available on a Master Agreement section in the search results on the Shopper (SHOP) page allow either a Delivery Order or a Payment Request transaction to be created from the UR transaction. By default, a Delivery Order transaction is created from a UR transaction for each Commodity Group that is associated with a Master Agreement. You can create a Payment Request transaction instead by selecting the Create Payment flag on the Commodity Group tab. If there are multiple Commodity Groups with the Create Payment flag selected, then each Commodity Group is used to create a new Payment Request transaction. If you select the Create Payment check box and the Payment Request Transaction Code specified on System Options does not allow a reference to a Master Agreement, or the Commodity Group does not contain a Master Agreement, an error is issued. If the Create Payment flag is selected on the Commodity Group component and the UR does not contain an Accounting Line the resulting Payment Request will fail, since the referenced Master Agreement does not contain accounting information. Please refer to the “Master Agreement Commodities” topic for more information.
