Sell using Item Number but Buy using Supplier Item Number

Hi,

Is it possible to use Item Number in a Sales Order, and in the Purchase Order, use the supplier item number? When the supplier bill is received, the Purchase Order with the supplier item number will be billed, bringing the item in inventory.  How does the item works its way through inventory so I can sell the item using the Item Number?

 

Thanks

Marlon

    HI marlonnz,

     

    The Item ID field is essentially your own assigned identification number for a specific item created in your inventory. It's used for all internal tracking and inventory management purposes. The Supplier Item ID is the unique identifying code assigned by your supplier for the same item. You can enter the Supplier Item ID in the Buying details section of items.

     

    Currently, you can't use different item numbers directly for sales orders and purchase orders at the time of creation. However, the Supplier Item ID will be displayed under the Item ID column when viewing, printing, or emailing the bill or purchase order in PDF format.

     

    Cheers,
