Hi,

looking for a way to automatically substitute on old Inventory ID with the new one when adding items to a Sales Order. We can use the Related Items to either suggest or require the change to the new item but, we’d like to be able to enter the old sku and have the system automatically change it to the new sku Similar to how the Customer Part number works on a Sales Order but, without the requirement to add the Alternate Id for every customer in the system.

I was able to arrive at a solution to this issue by altering the original item sku using the Change ID. Then adding the original sku to the new item as a Global Alternate ID. When the original sku is entered on a Sales Order it flips over to the new sku when entered on a Sales Order.
