Use this screen to establish individual manufacturers, their Commercial and Government Entity (CAGE) IDs, and manufacturer names. You can associate a manufacturer with alternate part numbers in the Alternate Parts screen to indicate from whom parts can be obtained.
Set up this screen during initialization and maintain it whenever you add or modify manufacturers.
Enter a manufacturer ID containing up to 10 alphanumeric characters. You can associate this manufacturer with an alternate part number. You can use these manufacturers in the Alternate Parts screen to identify from which manufacturers the given alternate part can be obtained. This is a required field.
Enter the manufacturer's CAGE ID. This ID is five alphanumeric characters. This should be the CAGE ID of the manufacturer, rather than your company. This can be the same as your Manufacturer ID.
Enter a manufacturer name containing up to 30 alphanumeric characters. This is a required field.
