On the heels of last week’s blog post on time-saving tips, John makes custom t-shirts and was asking if he can copy items to save time…
“Is there any way of duplicating an item? I have several items that are all the same except for item (part number) and description.”
Yes, you can copy items, suppliers, account codes, and most other Master File codes in SpendMap to save time and reduce data entry.
Just go into the applicable Master File and click the [ADD] button to get a blank screen, then enter an existing code in the Code Field and you will be prompted to copy the existing code to a new code. All details (fields) will be copied to the new code, any of which can then be modified as required.
This section of the Online Help has more information about generic features that can be used across all Master Files in SpendMap…

Thanks for writing this up. It will save us a lot of time.
