Exercises

1. Login to the Manufacturing and Distribution Manager Responsibility.

2. Create a Catalog named Networking-XX, where XX represents your initials or some
other unique identifier. Define a Descriptive Element in the Catalog named Network
Speed.

3. Create the following Items in Inventory, where XX represents your initials or some
other unique identifier:

Item Name Description Template Catalog
CN1000-XX Configured PC Model XX ATO Model
OC1000-XX Network Card Option Class ATO Option Class
CM1000-XX 10 Base T NIC Purchased Item Networking-XX
CM1001-XX 100 Base T NIC Purchased Item Networking-XX
CM0001-XX Standard Keyboard Purchased Item
OC2000-XX CPU Option Class ATO Option Class
CM2000-XX CPU - 1.4GHz Purchased Item
CM2001-XX CPU - 2.0GHz Purchased Item

unapplied. Add your NICs and Hubs to your Networking-XX Catalog, and give
them the appropriate value (10 or 100) for the Network Speed Descriptive Element.
Finally, remember to assign each item to the M1 Organization.

4. Add your Items to the Corporate Price List. Give them whatever prices you wish.
