After the parts have been imported move them from 'Order Qty to Used Qty' like DBS currently functions to stop duplicate/triplicate parts being ordered.

What problem is your idea trying to solve?
Concerned with how the Enable importing parts from the Parts Holding DBS file function works. Too me it appears that duplicate parts could be ordered as its not flagging them as used in DBS once you've pulled them in. What happens when you revise the quote and only want the newly added parts from revision 2 as you have already imported revision 1 parts. If you end up with all of revision 1 parts again then you have a massive amount of duplicate parts. |
The feature was designed for a one time pull of parts, we don't currently have the ability to update the parts holding file in DBS. This would be a significant enhancement which might involve accenture.
We are investigating.
