Update Product File


Inventory Control Menu -> Vendor Catalogues -> Update Product File

This program can be used to update list prices and re-order prices for any products in your firm's product file that are also listed in this Vendor Parts Price update file.
The prompts are:

VENDOR #

.
Only Vendor numbers with a Parts File already entered and defined in Vendor Definition File can be entered.

VALUE TO UPDATE
Select one of the following update actions:
  • Click List Price to update the List for any products in your company's product file that are also listed in this Vendor's price update.
  • Click Re-Order Price to update the Re-Order price for any products in your company's product file that are also listed in this Vendor's price update.
  • Click Both to update the List Price and the Re-Order Price for any products in your company's product file that are also listed in this Vendor's price update.

Note: To update product prices from the supplier's parts list, the corresponding Vendor Number must be assigned to each eligible product in Sales Inventory or Rental Inventory for a match.


PRINT AUDIT TRAIL
Check this box to print a report listing any products to be changed.
The product number, Vendor product number, old list price, new list price, old re-order price and new re-order price, display.
If this option to print the audit report is selected, then the price update does not actually occur until the audit report is accepted.

Uncheck this box to suppress the printed audit report.
Because no audit report is printed, the price update occurs immediately when this screen is accepted.


Finished?
A printer can be confirmed or re-selected from the Printer option located on the menu bar at the top of the screen.

Click the ACCEPT button to update the products or to begin printing the report, or CANCEL to abort.

Confirmation to Update the Product File:
This prompt appears only if the audit report was printed for products to be updated.

Click Yes to proceed with the update.
Click No to abort the update and leave the product file unchanged.
