Select Secondary Item Key

Your Customer Item Key (secondary match key) determines which item attributes NuVia considers when comparing items in your Virtual Item Master to items in your inbound item files (item master and POH files). This prevents the addition of duplicate items to your Virtual Item Master and ultimately your item master.

NuVia compares the items in your inbound item files to the items in your Virtual Item Master to prevent duplication. By default, the items are compared on Customer Item Number, Facility ID, Vendor Code and Vendor Catalog Number. If a direct match is found, NuVia either updates the existing item, or adds a new item. Items for which no direct match is found, proceed to the secondary match phase. In this phase, NuVia uses your secondary match key to search for matching items. If no item match is found, the item is added to your Virtual Item Master.
