I no longer have access to BPCS either (retired a year ago).  We were on 405
CD.
But I still have a copy of our reverse-engineering to answer auditor etc.
questions.

We did not use all item types.
0 = Phantom, such as Engineering Changes in our BOM for reference
1 = end items, which we sold, both manufactured, and some purchased solely
for resale
2 = sub-assemblies in manufacturing, neither the sellable end items, nor raw
materials WIP
7 = raw materials, purchased 

I don't remember now, long time ago we had one for "not in inventory" or
"not an item" when we used stuff in item master for things other than items,
such as tooling.

BPCS item types were defined within the ZPA file.

Some of the item types are "reserved" and the rest are user defined - 

Reserved

0=Phantom
3=Assortment
4=Kit
5=Planning bill
6=Non-balancing

The rest are user defined

The usual definitions are:

1=Manufactured
2=Purchased
7-Z could be most anything
