RE: Item descriptions

Peter is right, I was trying to be item specific.  Item comments can
hold the description and print on some documents (COM related) but not
production related (MO's).  
So Peter, you had to maintain the Mapics code to get the reports to
print your descriptions?  Creating the file is the easy part--getting
mapics to see it is the hard part.  Any user exits I'm not aware of?
Thanks

"Would item comments, "include on all documents" work for you ??"

Is there item comments at the ITEM MASTER level?  I know there are 
additional descriptions (PURCHASING) but I do not know a place where we 
can add item descriptions with that size (or anything like it) in
MAPICS. 
When you are saying "item comments", I think you are referring to sales 
order  - item comments, or mfg order - item comments, etc. and not at
the 
item level, which I think is the matter of the question... is this
correct 
Teresa?

We happen to have an inhouse file that its unique key is ITNBR and we
can 
put there whatever we want and have in-house reports read it.

Good luck!
