In addition to this, it is quite dangerous (at least for me) if you do not
consider situations like:


a) Items with active open purchase/plan/mfg order(s)
b) Items attached to BOMs.


At least, I would consider any process that may be provided through MAPICS to
help this project to be a little "smother" like OFFLINE maintenance and other
tools.  I have been involved in the past with production line integrations from
one location to another and also product re-engineering activities.  Generally
speaking, people from different key departments have had to develop a documented
process in such a way that the Production, Engineering, Accounting and
Information Systems Departments (just to mention a few) have knowledge and
control.


In conclusion, I prefer to change to a new item procedurally instead of
automatically.


Regards and good weekend everybody!

There would be a lot of files that would be affected.  Think of all the
records in history that will need to be changed.  I not sure this is such a
wise move.

Subject: Changing of Item Numbers



I am looking to see if anyone has developed a way of changing one item
number to another item number throughout the entire
Mapics database.

If anyone has a list of all the fields and files that need to be changed
would be a good starting point.

I have a cross referencing utility (Hawkeye) that I can use to help me but
would sooner use a proven method if available.
