| We've been parting out and listing a lot of sets lately and we use the remark
field to put in the location in our inventory system.
One thing that slows us down a lot when storing parts is that there is no way
to sort the list by remark. That means that we have to run around the warehouse
to put parts in their correct spot and it's a big waste of time. If we could
sort the part out by remarks then we wouldn't have this issue and it's
very likely an easy fix on the side of the site.

| I'm not sure if this would be helpful. On the inventory page you can use
"Search My Inventory", check off "Remarks" and "Any Part of Field". In the Keyword
field you can then enter your storage location.

If needed you can also enter a specific set number further down the page.

I see what you mean but the situation is as follows:
We take 50 sets of (SET NUMBER), part it out to our inventory and store it in
bins.
All the parts that we've already had in our inventory have locations in bins.
We want to put all the same parts in the same bins for easier picking.
If we sort by part name it mostly follows our storage system but not always so
we have to run around to different parts of the warehouse to put the parts in
their correct bins. If we could sort the part out by remark, we would have them
in the correct order and it would make everything much easier.

| Hi there,
if i understand correctly this can be done with brickstock.
Open the set to part out in one file and your inventory in another. Choose the
set file, then "edit - Copy Remarks from Document" and choose your inventory
as source.
Now you can sort by remarks.
But in Brickstock there is a bug where if the source has the same part number
but different
color, it copies it anyway. So you need to check the file.

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying.
I'll illustrate the situation.
Let's say the set has black plate 1x1 and blue plate 1x1 in it. In the part
out they'll be one after the other but in our inventory the black one is
stored in a large bin and not in the same part of racking as the blue one. So
we either have to put the blue part in its bin, go put the black part in its
bin then come back to the other part of the warehouse for the next part or to
put the parts that go in large bins aside and then do them once we get over there.
If there was a way to sort by remarks then we'd have the black part later
in our part out.

I sort my parts using remarks too.
What I do, when parting out a set, is select the following options.
On the Part out screen, check the box that says...
"Consolidate lots with my existing inventory and adjust quantity of items that
are already in my inventory by using:"
Then select "Old Remarks." This will combine the lots, and keep your old location.
Once you upload the parts, you can then look at the parts in order of REMARKS.
Go to your inventory.
On the right enter the set number
Then once it loads, sort by remarks.
NOTE: If you have the option to keep your parts in your inventory when they are
sold out turned on, remember that they will stay in stock room unless you manually
change them, or choose "NEW STOCKROOM Option"
Hope that helps.
