Hi, I am trying to figure out what is the best way for handeling this.
I have a vendor that does not allowe me to sell their item to all my customers so I need to find a way to either
have a customer/vendor relationship that if you dont have that setup for the customer you would not be able to sell the product to the customer
or
have a customer product class relationship
anyone ran into this or can give me an insite
I am on GP10 by the way, and I am running it for distribution

Nice one!
When I think about it...the pricing modules in GP could help. You should review the advanced pricing module - a price shee per cstomer with only the items that can be sold to customers on each? - might be a lot of work setting it up, but worh investigating.
The Customer Pricing module I originally wrote, Omni Price, can be set up to prevent the sale of items if they are not on a contract.
It is now sold by http://www.rocktonsoftware.com.

Hello,
We've written a product for GP call Customer Specific Pricing that allows you to attatch items to a specific customer. All the would need to be added would be dexterity code to pop an "don't use this item" it an item is not connected to a customer. This would not be complicated.

Hi, there is no functionality available in the standard product to achieve what you want. One of our customers had a similar issue - in that items were specific to customers - we achieved it by placing items in their own dedicated site - but it does depend on the data entry people following some set rules.
However, it would be a very achievable development (both technically and economically) . You would need a table that stores products blocked for each customer. Then you would need to insert a trigger in the SOP line entry when you tab off the item code field, that checks this table. If it finds that the item selected is blocked for the customer, an error message is displayed / the item code is deleted (there is a process in std SOP where by the user must confirm the delete action, but this could be handled programatically). Make sure your developer knows SOP entry backwards! - it can be the trickiest module to modify - but once you know it, and know the potential pittfalls, it is certainly a good candidate for modification.
Perhaps someone knows of a third party product that achieves this?
