Alternate IDs tab for Part Numbers

Updated by Cheryl Wallace

This tab on the Part Numbers page is only visible only for non-serialized inventory types. All inventory in ToolHound can be referenced by multiple unique IDs such as UPC codes from different vendors, internal bar codes, RFID chip, brass tags or engraved numbers. In the case of non-serialized items, the primary ID is on the part number and the list of alternate IDs is maintained on the Alternate ID tab. Read more about Primary ID vs Alternate ID.

For serialized items, alternate IDs are maintained on the Serialized Items page.

Fields on this tab include:

ID
