Purchasing Notes |
The Purchasing Notes tab enables you to record notes that pertain to part purchases.
Tip: Information on this tab is accessible only if the Manage parts ordering and Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) values field on the General tab of the Data -> Parts Items -> Setup -> Options screen is set to BY LOCATION. If the field is set to CENTRALLY, use the Purchasing Info tab of the Data -> Parts Items -> Primary Information screen for purchasing information for a part centrally.
Tip: You can use the filter to restrict the information that displays to a specific part ID, part suffix, inventory location, keyword, short description, product category, or part classification, among others. If you specify a cross-reference part ID that cannot be found, the applicable part ID is searched for and displayed.
The Location Information screen supports location level access control, so you must belong to a user group with the applicable authorizations to make changes or updates.
Data in the fields in the top section of this tab are display only from the Basic Info tab.
Part ID

Part suffix
Number associated with the part in the Part ID field, which distinguishes it from other parts with the same part ID.
Inventory location ID
Identifier of the location where the part inventory is stored. This field has a list box. The location name displays to the right of the ID.
Data in the box in the bottom section of this tab records information about purchasing the part. This is an optional, free-format area.
