PRODUCT MAINTENANCE
This screen allows input of all relevant stock keeping and retail information for a
saleable/stock Product Code.
Product Code
This is the in-house code number for the item, it may be an internal reference number,
or it may directly relate to the ECR number.
If the Product Code is to be the same as the ECR number, then the system may benefit
from having the options screen set so the ECR code is automatically updated with the
Product Code. This means only one code number needs to be maintained. (See Options)
It should be noted, due to the fact the Product Code is an alphanumeric field, it is
possible to have Product Codes such as ABC0001, ABC0002etc. It also means in order to
provide numeric sorting the system works on a fixed number of digits i.e. code 1
becomes 000001, 000002, etc.
Description
This is the long description for the product, which appears on the reports.
