Export eProcurement Inventory Abbreviations

Use the Export eProcurement Inventory Abbreviations application to export inventory abbreviation data from Costpoint into a delimited text file that can be uploaded into the eProcurement system, where it can use the inventory abbreviation data to generate purchase orders for inventory parts.

You can also choose to export specific types of inventory abbreviations based on the selections on this screen.

There are two ways to work with export files in Costpoint:

  • You can export the file to an Alternate File Location.
  • You can export the file to the Costpoint database.

If you decide to use the first option, click in the Alt File Location field to select the alternate file location to which you want to save the file. If you choose the second option, leave the Alt File Location field blank when you export the file.
