Re: How to Handle Product Numbers

Couldn't you stock it as one item number (at its' lowest available selling
size Inches) and then sell it by the inch?

As long as it does not have a different fit, form or function, this might
work.

Subject: How to Handle Product Numbers


We create a different part number for each product we make, but it is out of
control.  Most items are the same type of product but different lengths, so
for example a piece of roofing that is 24" long has one part number and a
piece that is identical expect 26" long has a different part number.  Does
anyone know a better way to handle this within MAPICS?
