Lookup By Tab
The inventory system allows multiple references to a single inventory item. The Lookup By tab allows you to add additional part numbers to the system, thus creating a robust and broad lookup tool.
Part Number Listing
This displays all part numbers currently associated with the item, along with the vendor and unit of measure information.
A single UPC may be designated as the Primary UPC. If a Primary UPC Code is indicated, this UPC will be printed on the Bin or Item label, otherwise the system will use the first UPC that is available.
UPC Code
If the UPC Code is indicated during the original creation of the item, this reference will automatically appear within the referenced parts listing.
Be aware of UPC-E (European) barcodes that may exist in your inventory. These can be converted to display the entire 12-digit UPC-A code if your scanner has been configured properly. Therefore, it is not necessary to create separate UPC-E entries into the lookup method listing.
Primary Vendor Part
The Primary Vendor Part Number (PVPN) is indicated in the Type Number column with PVPN and is associated with the main source of the current product.
Second Vendor Part
The Secondary Vendor Part Number (SVPN) is indicated in the Type Number column with SVPN and is associated with an alternate source of the current product. Multiple SVPNs may exist allowing multiple references to the same product.
Short Barcode
The Short Barcode is a carry over from previous versions of TransActPOS and can be used for alternative lookup methods, such as sizes of lumber. The SBC value is manually created by the user to identify items by a custom Item ID and is assigned a specific UOM (Unit of Measure).
The SBC can be entered at Ring Sale or in any other Enter Item field in place of an item number or UPC. It can be any alphanumeric combination, so you can use it to enter more common or more intuitive names for an item that may be easier to enter. For example, you may add 'Snowball Bush', which is the common name used for this viburnam.
Enter the vendor associated with this part number. You can click the dropdown to select from your vendor list or click the ellipsis to open the Find Vendor screen and search for a vendor.
This field is only available for Primary Vendor Part and Secondary Vendor Part types.
Select the purchase unit of measure. You can click the dropdown to select from your vendor list or click the ellipsis to open the Unit of Measure Selector.
This field is only available for Primary Vendor Part and Secondary Vendor Part types.
Within TransActPOS, the Vendor Swap function allows you to swap an existing Secondary Vendor for the current Primary Vendor.
The CrossCheck located within the inventory file addresses only the selected item. You can do a mass cross check through Options | Electronic Catalog Menu | Functions | Cross Check.
