Non-stock items from multiple vendors

Keen

Hi all,

Everyday we get through the commerce gateway between 5 and 20 catalogus of items. These catalogus contain:
- New Items
- Old items with new prices
- Old items with some other field changed
- And a list of items that are obsolete

These catalogs come from different vendors, but can contain the same items. These items are matched by the common item no.

This means there can be 1 item, with an internal item no, but has prices from multiple vendors.

Now i would want to put all items in the non-stock table instead of into the item table.

Is it possible to do this, and when we create and normal item from a non-stock one, to get all vendor items in this internal item ?

Thanks.

Hi Keen,

well, yes that would be possible, but you will have to do some customization. Here ar some points that you will have to adress:

- you will have to differentiate between items that are allready created and those, that are only in the non-stock tyble, when importing.

- You also need to be able to identify the same (new) item that comes from different vendors (probably with the Barcode), so that you get one item. You can either change the routine that creates items from non-stock items, or add to the existing functionality of non-stock items (something like the item vendor table) - which I would prefer.
