Documentation

Definition

Specifies the old number of the material used by the vendor.

Use

In most cases, the material has a different number at the vendor than in this system. You can therefore enter the old number in a purchase order as identification.

If the vendor changes his number (in an order acknowledgment, for example), the old vendor material number prior to the last change is shown here.
