It would be great to be able to search via vendor reference number in materials. I find there are multiple times a week that I am looking for a part number given to me by someone in the shop that may be brand specific, where my material is generic. I have multiple pricing and vendors loaded for the material, but it is difficult to locate without the additional search option in material.
The ability to have multiple part numbers for a part is very common, I'm very surprised this ERP does not give us the capability to have multiple part #s that are searchable and ties it together in the location database.
Example, MS51957-18,211005497,91400A114 All identical parts...
Copy and paste this into Shop Alerts Query
SELECT Material.Material, Material.Description, Vendor_Material.Vendor_Reference, Vendor_Material.Vendor, Material.Status
FROM Material INNER JOIN
Vendor_Material ON Material.Material = Vendor_Material.Material_Owner
WHERE Vendor_Material.Vendor_Reference = 'INSERT VENDOR NUMBER HERE'
