IC811 - Item Master Load

Run IC811 to process either or both of the following kinds of data from
another inventory system to create the Inventory Control database:

- Item Master data and
- Item Comments data.

You can run IC811 in two modes:

- Report mode reads the input files and reports any edit errors.
- Update mode updates the Item Master and Item Comments database files

How you express your units of measure determines how you prepare input
alternate unit of measure data. Two examples explain how the expressions may
vary.

Expression 1 - X amount of your stock unit of measure per your alternate unit
of measure.
For Expression 1, the alternate unit of measure conversion field must equal
the alternate unit of measure multiplier field.

Expression 2 - X amount of your alternate unit of measure per your stock unit
of measure. For Expression 2, the result of multiplying the alternate unit of
measure conversion field by the alternate unit of measure multiplier field
must be 1.
