Introduction

The primary goal of the Aptean Vendor Item Catalog (VIC) extension is to provide the ability to enter a purchase order in a fast, structured, and regulated manner. The Vendor Item Catalog page includes various combinations of Item No. and Variant Code fields. Based on this setup, a purchase order can be used to open the Purchase Item Catalog page and enter the ordered quantities.

Some new features are turned off when Dynamics 365 Business Central is updated to a newer version. These features are optional for a period of time until they are automatically enabled for all users in a later software update. The Vendor Item Catalog extension requires activation of ‘Feature Update: Write longer item references’ to ensure proper execution of functionality. Please activate the feature update, if it is still available on the Feature Management page. If the feature is not available anymore, it is automatically enabled in a software update.
