Warning Back up your data before using this utility.

Overview

Use Delete and Change Items to delete or change existing item codes. An item can only be selected to undergo one function at a time. For example, you cannot select the same item code to delete and renumber at the same time. The most recent function assigned to that item code is placed on the delete/change list to execute. To perform a series of procedures using a single item code, you must execute each function separately, printing the Delete and Change Item Listing each time.

Note Items valued using standard cost cannot be merged if the standard cost is different. You cannot change the standard cost of a standard cost valued item without a corresponding general ledger adjustment posting. Use the Standard Cost Adjustment utility to change the standard cost so an adjustment is made to the general ledger. The standard costs must be the same so that you can use Delete and Change Items and keep the inventory balanced to general ledger.

Click Proceed to execute the delete and change item process, and you're asked to print the Delete and Change Item Listing. You must print the listing before you can delete or change any records. You can also print it by clicking the Print button.

Note The delete and change process can be performed only if tasks associated with the Item table are not in use and all data entry in progress has been posted.
