Customer Item #'s in our Item Record/Transactions
What is the typical best practice for representing a customer's item# in our item record when we are manufacturing something for them? It is pretty clear on the Vendor side, but I don't see the same sub tabs supporting different customer's item#s.
- Do we use their item # for ours since it is a customer specific product?
- Do we bury it in the item description?
- Do we use a custom field?
I am just not sure the best practice for meeting a customer's requirement that I reference their item# on my records.
