Title: easy way to change a group of item numbers
Post by timgolds on 03/31/05 at 08:55:06

I have an issue I'm hoping someone can help with.

We have a list of item numbers that begin with 99-##-#### for non inventoried parts most of which are tools or supplies for production. Some of these are also inserts for lathes and mills. However, we have noticed that our costs on these have gone up significanty so we want to start tracking their usage on work orders. I can change them to a type R to track them but we use 99- part numbers for other non-inventory things and run reports for 99 part usage and costing (which is how we found we needed to start tracking the above mentioned!)

I'm looking for a way to change all 99-ms-#### and all 99-dd-#### to 00-ms-#### and 00-dd-####

any ideas other than using SM-J-L on each one at a time would be a great help.

Thanks in advance

Tim

We do have an add-on that automatically runs SM-J-L from a CSV file of Old PN, New PN.

I'm ressurecting this one. I poked around the add-on area of istechsupport.com and didn't see the add-on. Did I simply miss it? We have a few hundred part numbers that need changing (thanks RoHS).
