How to add or delete LMC, ARRC, or IRC to an existing stock item records …

Background Knowledge:

Maintaining Stock records is a continuous process. One of these many processes is inserting or adding management codes to stock item record. A good example is adding ‘Local Management Code (LMC)’ or ‘Automatic Reorder Restriction Code (ARRC)’ or ‘Issue Restriction Code (IRC)’ to a stock item so the Stock Control can easily pull these items if need arises. Like managing your “Never Out” items. “Never Out” Items are those items that must be onboard 100% (range) at any given time… never NIS of these items. The only way to achieve this goal is to closely monitor these items. It must be frequently sight and physically inventoried. To accomplish the goal of having 100% (range), a list must be produced as an aid to physical inventory of the ‘never out’ items. This is where Local Management Code (LMC) becomes handy to key-in during the production of the listing.
