Vendor's Item Number Enter the vendor's item number for the item. Vantagepoint uses this number when it generates the item's requests for price quote, and this number prints on the item's purchase orders.
U/M This field displays the item's default Unit of Measure as selected on the General tab. It is dynamically linked to that field: the data changes there when you change it here, and vice versa.

Last Price Date This column displays the last date when the item's price changed. Vantagepoint updates the item record with this date each time that a purchase order that has the item is final printed.
Total Qty To Date This field displays the collected quantity of this item that was purchased to now. Vantagepoint recalculates this data each time that a purchase order that has the item is final printed.
Total Amount To Date This field displays the collected monetary value of this item that was purchased to now. Vantagepoint recalculates this data each time that a purchase order that has the item is final printed.
