Our company has to renumber over 5,000 items that have years of accumulated history. We have used the Renumbering utility in the past, but it was very, very slow. In one instance we ran it from Friday night at 8:00 PM to Monday at 9:00 AM without interruption and only a few dozen items were renumbered. Is there any way to speed up this process? Will the renumbering utility also correct any bills of materials that use the old item with the new item number? If the Renumbering Utility is not going to work, could we create the new items using VI and then use VI again to create the new bill of materials for these items? Would it be better to use VI to replace the old component with the new component in the BM_BillDetail file or would it be better to use VI to import into the Replace/Delete Component Entry tool and then run the register to do the actual replacement? Also, would it be fairly simple to edit existing sales order and purchase orders to reference the new item rather than the old item number? Any other ideas on how to make this process easier? We are using Sage 2013 Advanced. Thank you,
