The ability to delete parts has been a great addition. To flush out old and replaced by cleans up the data that we review in excel. In fact out stores have less than 50,000 for active parts … match that with your store … dare you ….
One point we recently called the help desk on ( call #692-8127 ) was why some parts remained … they show zero on hand – zero order point … well ..turns out they were part of a Purchase order that is still outstanding for some other part. So our best option …wait …and keep flushing these parts …
As mentioned before – we added a PN Code ( sub line ) 999 for junk for each line ( something you can do using DFIU ) and then we run a global A-Z all lines for PN Code 999.
You have to weed your garden ….flush the junk out of your system … ( small point … when you delete older replaced by sub line or complete lines … you will loose your sales data on Reports>Inventory>PN Code report …this is usually for the previous year and we can live with that … so don’t believe the sales growth this report is telling you 🙂
