NexCom Acquisition Advice

How to use NexCom Acquisition Advice in Federal Logistics Codes: access, working steps, fields, related records and troubleshooting.

Purpose and access

Maintain NSN-related references and fixed code lists for federal supply classes, units, demilitarization and other logistics attributes. The reference fields support identification; they are not a live FED LOG entitlement or automatic catalogue feed.

This page is a record page in Supply Chain → Federal Logistics Codes. Use the link above to open the configured destination; permissions are checked by the destination service.

ERP links open in a new tab. Sign in with your own account; record visibility, actions and approval authority follow your assigned permissions. Screens can differ by company and configuration.

Before you start

Prepare the required information: Code, Description, Official source.

Confirm the company, party, dates, units and source references that apply. Select existing links carefully and check for an existing record before creating a duplicate.

Working steps

  1. Open NexCom Acquisition Advice from Supply Chain → Federal Logistics Codes, or use ERP Search.
  2. Filter the list and open the relevant record. To add a record, use Add/New when your role provides that action.
  3. Complete the editable fields described below. Required fields and validation conditions must be satisfied; read-only values are set by the system or their source records.
  4. Save the record and address validation messages. Reload and verify the saved values and relationships.
  5. Use any additional workflow actions only when the record and your role provide them. Saving this record does not automatically complete a related transaction or external action.

Field reference

These fields come from the installed ERP definition. Hidden fields and password inputs are omitted. Additional conditions, custom scripts and workflow rules can make a field required or read-only in a particular context.

Troubleshooting

  • Not permitted: verify the account, role and source-document permission. Do not share an administrator login.
  • Missing record or address: inspect the relevant Link or Dynamic Link fields; a matching title alone does not establish a relationship.
  • Cannot save or change status: review required fields, read-only values, document status and the configured approval transition.
  • Unexpected report or portal result: review company/date filters, source-document submission and the approved party or Employee link.
