Base Price/Cost

Enter your cost for the item. This field is cross-referenced with the Cost of Item field from the discounts and markup tab.  Whether you enter the value here or on the previous screen, the price will be updated in both fields.

Prior Price/Cost

Prior cost, used with running the Base Cost Updater utility.

Last Price Changed

Last time the cost was changed manually on a part.

Print this part on price list?

Yes or No - Indicates if the part is included on the price list.

Primary Vendor

Vendor

Enter Sub-Account of the vendor you most often purchase the part from.  The system will display the vendor's name to the right of the number. (Note: The vendor Sub-Table is normally shared with the Accounts Payable system).

Vendor Part #

(15 characters) - Enter the vendor's part number. You can produce a Simple listing report that lists the parts in vendor's part number sequence. The part # will also print on reorder reports and automatic PO generation, or a Stock Value Report, which lists the average and extended cost of each part.

UM

(3 characters) - Enter the vendor's unit of measure for the part.

Order Multiple

This optional field describes in what multiples you must order the part in. For example: if you sell the individual part but it must be ordered by the dozen, then you would enter 12 in the Order Multiple field.  On the Re-order Report, if the New On Hand is 2 and the Stock Minimum is 15, the system would normally want you to order 13 to replenish your stock back to it's minimum level. However, if you have 12 entered in the Order Multiple field, then the system knows you need to order the part in multiples of 12 and will set a Reorder Quantity of 24 (2 sets of 12).
