The Vendor Swap will only exchange preexisting Primary and Secondary information that is present within the Item's Lookup By Screen. Both the primary and secondary vendors that are involved in the swap process must be present in the Lookup By.
The Option > Electronic Catalog > E-Catalog Functions > CrossCheck can add additional vendor relationships to the inventory based upon the UPC and/or Manufacturer Part number. Current Electronic Catalogs are required to effectively complete this task.
Use Vendor Swap to change the Item ID from a UPC to the Primary Vendor's Part Number
If your data has UPC values as the Item ID, the Vendor Swap utility can be used to change the Item ID to that of the selected Primary Value!
Example:
The new vendor must first be defined in IC | Support Files | Vendors.
Select the vendor to be changed and the new vendor from the pull-down lists. Enter an Item ID, a portion of an ID, Class, or Manufacturer to select the appropriate items.
