Edit Inventory Description
Edit Inventory Description
Should be Able To Edit Inventory Description With Changing What's on Card. We Used To Able To Do This. This Would Be Good To Be Able To Show A Part Was used On Rt Or Left Side.

Re: Edit Inventory Description?
The program logic has historically considered the Description as part of the unique part record along with part number.
If you un-check the Inventory Part checkbox, you gain access to edit the Description, however if you do change it, the program will ask you if to choose an option from the dialog box shown below. Your option is either YES - to let Manager SE create a new part record based on your change(s) OR NO - which doesn't create a new record but ALSO un-checks the Inventory Part box once again. You'll sell the part with the modified Description but the part will not be subtracted from inventory because it now sees this as something different. I'd recommend having two part numbers for RH/LH items which I have to think occurs much of the time anyways.

Re: Edit Inventory Description
The program logic has historically considered the Description as part of the unique part; Could This Not Be Change To Allow Editing Of Part Discription? I Know We Could Edit In Order Versions Of The Software. This Would Be A Very Nice Addition To Up Coming Updates.

Re: Edit Inventory Description
So how exactly would such modified part numbers display on reports?

Re: Edit Inventory Description
They Would Show Up As What The Inventory Card Discrpition. The Change Would Only Affect The Customer Invoice. That Is How It Used To Work In Mitchell. When We Could Change It.
