Modifer functions exist in PSTL to allow record IDs to be amended. One such use might be if a non-standard ItemNumber was created or if ItemNumber Combiner has been used to combine two item records that now have a new name and the item number reflects the description. For example, if Attr. 5352-Red was combined with Attr. 5352-Wht, the merged Item Number may change its description to Attr. 5352-Wht/Red and for ease of use the Item Number in Dynamics GP may need to be changed.
To change and item number from an existing ID to a new one, follow these steps:
Make a backup of the SQL Server database.
Open PSTL and select Item Number Modifier from Inventory Tools.
Click Next:
In the Starting Item Number, enter
PHON-ATT-53RD
.In the NewItem Number, enter
PHON-ATTR-53RD/WHT
.Click Convert.
Click Continue on the warning prompt regarding having a backup of the SQL Server database.
