&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;Naming a Product&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do you understand why we use logical names here, as opposed to codes?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ERP is designed around the ability to filter, search and sort on anything within any list or report. It is also designed to work &lt;br /&gt;
with the smallest amount of steps and understanding required. With this in mind, you should design your products names&lt;br /&gt;
around the fact that the staff don't know any product codes for your products.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the above in mind, you would on the main product form, use logical names to describe your products and put any &lt;br /&gt;
product specific codes, under the miscellaneous tab or in the extra buy tab.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This way if someone was to search for &amp;quot;Bridgestone Wheels&amp;quot; they would simply type in &amp;quot;Bridgestone Wheels&amp;quot;. By also &lt;br /&gt;
adding the product code under the miscellaneous tab; if someone was to lookup the code for Bridgestone Wheels of &lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;BW678UI&amp;quot;, they would also find the same product.&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
