    We are wanting to start using our Handhelds in the OR to help them automate their ordering process. They currently have templates which I was going to upload into IC81 with a PAR value. On creating the first PAR I discovered that non-stock items have to have the vendor information filled out on the "More" tab. I would have thought it would pull that info from the IC12. Is anyone using the HHT for Stock/Non-Stock items? With the OR having so many non-stock items, I don't want to have to look each one up to determine the vendor number. Is there a solution? Open to any suggestions.

      We have non-stock par in the OR and no, to my knowledge there is no other way. We did the initial load as a query and then upload into IC81. We also added IC331 as part of our vendor item switch process, but there's drift. It typically gives them an error on the req and they are responsible for changing the IC81.

        Ugh! I was afraid of that. Not what I wanted to hear. Thank you for your quick response.

          At my previous employer we used a Crystal report to run an audit on the replenishment information in IC81 and compare it to IC12 and had it run daily to the data people so they could keep it up to date. Seemed to work well for us.

            The non-stock pars don't have a source IC12 warehouse for us. We're not using IC12.2 but the PO25.6 - hence the querying needed for us.
