vendor item numbers in PO

[johnhugh]

Hi,

In Accpac 5.5 Is there a way to enter the vendor item number on a PO which will then translate into the actual item number?
Same as it does with manufacturing item numbers.

Seems strange they implemented this function with manufacturing numbers but not vendor item numbers.

Huh? Vendor items have worked many versions, 5.5 is no different.

Thanks for your reply tuba.

If you enter a manufacturer's item number, Purchase Orders will replace it with your inventory item number.

I thought this works for the vendor item number as well but I only get "Item does not exist" when entering the vendor item number in the item number field.

Oops, you're right, my mistake.

That would be a good idea, however.
