Title: Multiple locations for customer item #'s
Post by EMI Ann on 02/13/09 at 07:03:30

A fair number of our customers have multiple locations (both bill and ship to) that use the same parts, and the same customer part numbers. Sure would be handy if you could pick a from-to to assign a customer part number in Items-IN-L-C.
Thanks for your continued support!

Ann,

What we do is assign a different customer code for each location. That way, they can have their own customer cross ref.

Actually, we have multiple customer codes for multiple billing and shipping locations within the same mega-corporations; for example, L3 has dozens of each, which codewise are all variations on a theme. Their internal part numbers for our widgets seem to remain constant across the branches, though. If I could pick a from-to range, it would save me from having to enter the same info again and again for each plant. Actually, a "program" that would allow me to copy part number info into a new customer when a new branch comes on line would work well, and would, if set up with a from-to, work even better.

Closest we currently have available is an add-on to Import custoemr cross reference so you could maintain a spreadsheet of all your cross reference numbers for this company and when a new branch comes online, copy their code down the column of the spreadsheet and save as CSV and import.
