The Item Catalog in Transaction Manager allows you to define item translation records manually in addition to importing them.
Create a new item translation record by entering the business system's ID in the Item Translation column, and then entering the trading partner's IDs for the same item. The names of these columns can differ depending on the EPP used for this trading partner. The instructions, below, describe procedures for adding, changing or deleting item translation records.
By default, the Item Catalog is automatically populated with item information when you receive incoming Purchase Orders. This setting can be disabled under Automatic List Updating via the trading partner Settings options page.
To manually add item translation records to the item catalog:
Select a trading partner for editing.
Select Translations on the action bar and then select Item Catalog from the dropdown options. The Item Catalog displays in the Trading Partners workspace.
Click Add New Item on the action bar to open a new blank line on the grid and then fill in the fields required for the translation. The first and second columns are mandatory, as described under Item Catalog Record Requirements.
Select Save on the action bar to save your changes.
