Does anyone know of a way to lock out requester's from being able to order certain items from the item master based on their location or company?
Background: Our organization went through an affiliation within the last year and as a result two item master files were combined. We had to work through many item number collisions and vendor number collisions, but we're doing pretty good now. However, the two organizations are physically located in different places. Requester's are occasionally requesting an item that is stocked at a different facility instead of picking the one that is stocked at their facility. They do this when they search the catalog in RQC by description and instead of looking at the items that are nonstocks or inventory items for their location they pick the one that catches their eye based on description.
Any ideas on how to block certain items from the requester's based on their location or company? I understand their are some answers such as we need to standardize our item master some more and move to one number, or the item group sits above the company so maybe create two item groups...but we want to keep usage reporting simple by using one item group. Thanks in advance if you have any ideas!
