Inventory
Rebuild Functions
After
creating new inventory items or deleting old ones, the following
functions/rebuilds should be run.
Sequence numbers are a means of assigning a logical order to
your inventory items within each product category. They control the
layout of reports and the order in which the items display during inquiries.
Sequence numbers may be assigned
manually or by running this function. They are also used as a
cross-reference to the item number and control the order in which items display
when the auto forward/backward feature is used.
This function rebuilds the cross references between the item
number and it’s description, sequence number, search key, vendor number, vendor
item number, and bar code. It is necessary to be able to search for an
item by any one of these cross-references. It may be run at any time but
may take some time depending upon the number of items currently on file.
This function rebuilds the cross references between the item
number and the bar code. It is necessary to be able to scan bar codes at
point for sale. It may be run at any time but may take some time
depending upon the number of items currently on file.
This function is necessary to create the auto
forward/backward linkage between item numbers. It is dependent upon the
cross reference of item number to sequence number, therefore, the Sequence
Number Conversion and Rebuild Inventory Cross Reference functions must be
performed first.
