Exchange Product Class
Utilities Menu -> Inventory Control -> Update Class/Group/Vendor on Product ->
CLASS EXCH -> Exchange Product Class
This utility is useful in amalgamating several Product Classes
together.
A range of products in the old product class can be moved to the
new product class.
The new product class must have first been setup in Sales Product Classes or Rental Product Classes before proceeding.
When finished, the old product class can be deleted using
Delete Product Classes.
The prompts are:
-
- OLD CLASS
- Type in the existing source product class or select it from the
Product Class Search window.
The products will be moved from this source class to the New
Class.
CLASS TYPE
- The type of Product Class either Rental or Sales, is displayed
for information.
NEW CLASS
- Type in the target product class or select it from the Product Class Search window.
The products will be moved from the Old Class to this target
class and the Class change is tracked in the Audit Log for each product.
The classes are compatible. Products in a Rental Class can only
be moved to Rental Class, and products in a Sales Class can only be
moved another Sales Class.
