Hi everyone,

One of the side effects of the variant merge project is that some of our more
advanced users began asking for Alternate Item IDs to be included in the catalog
download feature.

So we have added this field to the download - see attached images. Downloads
(as before) are available in either CSV or XML format.

By way of reminder, for the variant project we are adding all original item numbers
as alternates to make sure people are able to easily find parts where the number
has changed.

Thank you! I already implemented it into my software!
