Note: Use your [Tab] key to move from one field to the next. Mandatory Fields (fields which must contain a value before a function can be completed) are shown with a yellow background.
Account - enter the Supplier's Account number (e.g. AB0000125). When you move to the next field the Company name (e.g. Absolute Homecare Services Ltd) will be shown in the field to the right. This is a mandatory field.
Product - enter your Product code for the product in question (e.g. TILES01). This is a mandatory field.
Supplier Product Ref - enter the term/reference used by the Supplier (e.g. Terracotta1). This is a mandatory field.
The Date Modified/Created field defaults to today's date.
3. When you have completed the fields as required, select Save from the Toolbar - Sub Menu to save the new record.
Once a Supplier Part Number record has been created for a product, you may refer to the product using the Supplier's reference as well as your own Product code.
Referring to the example above: if a user wishes to add the above product - 'box of Terracotta tiles 800x800' - to a Purchase Order, instead of typing the product code (TILES01) into the Product Code field they have the option of entering the Supplier Part Number (Terracotta1) as an alternative.
