Manage obscure inventory access

Many suppliers provide an all-item catalog that can be imported into Paladin using an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) process. Catalog items that are not in active inventory are called obscure inventory items.

If your store is set up with EDI, you can follow these steps: 

1. In Paladin, from the main menu, select File > Setup.
2. Select the Company tab.
3. In the Tag Styles pane, for each supplier in the Obscure File Supplier Precedence list, you can select any of the following Obscure File Access checkboxes:

• • Invoice/Quote
  • Inventory
  • RF Unit
  • Purchase Order

4. Click Save, then click Close.

Note: When restoring a deleted part with a matching part in obscure, and no alt part numbers, there will no longer be a history record created stating it is an alternate.
