"item" stock list duplicate, already used both item stock numbers for sales

Posted on by 25

I have a stock item under 2 seperate item codes. However both item codes have been used to sell to customer and I can't delete either of these item codes because they have been used.

example

item                                     Description

SL-ITEM-0004001           fire A

SL-ITEM-0007852           fire A

Have I got to go to the sales order and change that first to *4001 from *7852 before I can delete the duplicate?

or is there another way to?

    Thank you. Blocking does seem the easy option.

    I am still waiting for developer to get back to me.

    Hi, I vote for Block because it has the least impact and is the easiest.

    Alternatively, you can ask your developers to refer to the custom merge method below.

    Hope this helps as well.

    Thanks.

    There is no standard functionality that can help you here.

    So basically you have two options. You can either block one of the items and continue to use the other item or you can contact your partner and ask them if they can merge the transactions for the two items for you.

    It is technically doable but requires some caution.
