Store Operations POS Item Table Field Suggestion

We would like to suggest adding a new "numeric" type field in the "Item" table of Store Operations. All of the customers that we have dealt with have only used numeric values in the "ItemLookupCode" field, however this field is an alphanumeric string, and does not offer true numeric sorting in applicable browsers. Not to alienate those clients that use alphanumeric characters in the ItemLookupCode field, we suggest adding several true numeric fields for custom data, then the user could sort on their numeric data. In addition to our encounters with numeric value codes, all of the RMS documentation, and UPC codes for example all coorelate with using "numeric" digits for this field. Thank you.

Thomas,

If you're looking to use only an integer, I don't believe that the subcategoryID field is used by RMS.
