The Part Bin Re-Number frame allows you to change the number for an existing Part Bin to a new number while still keeping all of the same parts assigned to the new bin.
To re-number an existing bin, make sure you are logged into the proper inventory location for the bin you want to assign a new number. By default, the location you are logged into will be the inventory location on this frame.
Enter the existing bin in the Bin Number field or double click in the field to select one from the List of Values (LOV). Parts assigned to the existing bin will display on the i-frame below along with their Descriptions, Manufacturers and Qty on Hand.
Type the new bin number into the New Bin Number field or select one from the LOV. This field has a limit of eight characters. Note: You have to set up the new bin number on the Part Bins frame before you can use it on this frame as this is a validated field.
When finished entering the new part bin number, click the Save button at the top of the frame to reassign all the parts to the new bin.
