Assigning Vendors To Multiple Items 

The best method of assigning vendors to large groups of inventory items is to use the select and Replace commands. The process is as follows: Select all the inventory items that are purchased from a specific vendor, then use the Replace command to replace all those selected inventory items with the selected vendor. This will be much easier on you, as you can let Unique do all the hard work. 

To manually select items: 

Go to select and select the Manual Select command. A scrollable window appears listing all your inventory items.  

To mark an item as selected: 

Use the scroll bar to highlight the desired item and press the ENTER key. A "4" symbol appears at the left side of the window to signify that the item has been selected.  

To remove the mark: 

Select OK again and the mark is removed. 

When you have finished selecting your inventory items, select Replace/1st Vendor or Replace/2nd Vendor depending on if your are assigning the primary or secondary vendor to these items. A scrollable window appears listing all your vendors. If the vendor you want is not in the file, they will have to be added. 

Use the scroll bar to highlight the vendor you want to assign to the inventory item and select Ok.  

The name of the vendor you selected appears and you are asked to confirm that it is the correct vendor before proceeding. If you answer YES , Unique will replace the vendor's name for all the inventory items that have been selected. 

This process can be repeated over and over again to assign and re-assign other vendors.
