About Merge Part Number
Updated

Merge Part Number is used to combine two part numbers of the same inventory type where the merged part number no longer exists and the part number it was merged into remains with any item IDs from the merged part number.
This function is usually used when a part number has been inadvertently created more than once for the same part or when cleaning up your database to ensure standards such as naming or numbering conventions.
- For serialized part numbers, all item IDs from the merged part number will be moved to the remaining part number.
- For non-serialized part numbers, the item ID for the merged part number will become an alternate item ID for the remaining part number. Any alternates for the merged part number will be alternates for the remaining part number.
All transaction, purchasing, and service history as well as outstanding issues, requisitions, requests, purchase orders will all carry over to the remaining part number transparently.
For non-serialized parts, the quantity on hand and issues will be added.
Attachments from the merged part number will be moved to the remaining part number.
Service tasks for merged serialized parts will be added to the remaining part if they are different from the tasks assigned to the remaining part number. All items from the merged part number will be assigned the service requirement tasks on the remaining part number.
Rates from Transaction and Transfer Rat Sheets will take effect immediate
