Tips   Create partitioned commodity codes
New partitioned commodity codes are created in the same partition as your login partition.

Each partitioned commodity code map entry maps a commodity code in the system domain to the partitioned commodity code you are working with and includes default accounting information (an account type and account) so that users do not have to specify this information.

When you click Save, your changes are saved to the database. Objects (such as users, roles, and commodity codes) with the Adapter Source set to ManuallyMaintained are maintained within your Ariba Spend Management application and not updated by integration events. Objects with the Adapter Source not set to ManuallyMaintained can be overwritten or deleted by integration events. For more information, see About the adapter source.
