Product Location Selection

Menu Path: None

To use Product Location Selection, edit an existing product in Product Maintenance, and then click the OK button in the ribbon.

Note This window only appears if the edited product information is different from the product location information. If you change a field that is not tracked for a product location, then this window does not appear.

Purpose

Update product location information based on changes made in Product Maintenance.

Overview

Use Product Location Selection to quickly apply changes made in Product Maintenance to product location records so that you do not need to manually update the records in Product Location Maintenance.

Example You changed the buying method for a product that was originally set up with the wrong method. The buying method was copied to five product location records. You can use Product Location Selection to update the five product location records all at one time.
