Overview:
The Catalog Information window can be utilized for building out supplier product catalogs in PENTA. The catalog window allows you to match up the supplier's part # with your internal part #, as well as track manufacturer codes, pricing factors, unit of measures, price per unit, price history, and quantity breaks. Catalogs can be referenced on purchase order to default the price per unit, product id, or supplier product id. This window, the Catalog Price Modifiers window, allows you to mass update the catalog price information using an excel spreadsheet import process.
