Yes same here, I repair mowers and engines, probably stock 30 or so different air filters and spark plugs, on the stock alert I only see the word 'air filter' or 'spark plug', item number does come up if I click on it and it goes to the Purchase order but that is time cnsuming, if item number was showing it would be so helpful and so much quicker
So this request was made 6yrs ago.
Any business that uses inventory need to see the part number as well as the description when looking at the TO DO LIST -> Stock alert.
I am new to MYOB (1yr) and it seems that the development team dont have any interest in making changes that help the end user.
Why is that?

Another example of how much of a dismal failure MYOB has become.
Inventory is an absolute joke!
Basic functionality like this should be a very simple thing to fix IF the software has been designed correctly. Yet a request from nearly 5 years ago still has not been able to be achieved.
Realistically, we should not need to request specific changes to every single window or report like this! There is no reason why a well designed software should not have the same "select columns to view/arrange" that is applicable, avaliable in every single window / report.
Starting to seem like MYOB is being held back not only by its idiology of the way they priorities updates (to favour accountants and book keepers rather than real world business users), but by its raw structure of its DB and its lack of future viability.
It seems the days of persisting on "future updates" are somewhat pointless because MYOB neither cares about their users, or seems to have the ability to respond to our requests for basic functionality.
Time to jump ship lads and ladettes!!!

Yes I do mean the stock alert list. I have version 2016.3 but can't see the 'Insert/Modify' option that you're talking about?

Much earlier versions of MYOB had both Item name and Item description in the stock alert
I would like to know who was the bright spark at MYOB who decided that MY part number for an Item was unimportant ( or perhaps it was a combined bright spark idea)
Nearly everything we as MYOB coal face users revolves around our part number and description so I have been at a total loss to understand the stupidity of it being unavailable on the stock alert. It should also show the part number of the supplier as well but thats another massive change that MYOB would have to make
It seems like they are not really trying to make it USER friendly just accountant friendly

Im happy to put my name to this as I have been using MYOB for 24 years now and its only marginally better than the original and in some cases several steps back and so far very few real positive steps have been made by the MYOB DEVELOPMENT TEAM
They still havnt fixed the problem of it in stock alert only ordering some of the items required
It can take up to 3 and 4 orderes to get all the parts ordered
Duhhhh
When will someone listen

Yes, MYOB please add the option of viewing by the item number, as this function just is not helpful to us viewing by item name.

Hi
Is it possable to have a item number included on the short supply window list.
On the list it has item description and suppliers listed.
When the window is active it sorts by item description with the suppliers all over the place.
When clicked on item suppliers it list all them in order, but item details are still all over the place.
If you had item number then supplier at leas every thing on order page would be in order for checking stock ordering.
Could support please include this in a later update

Another very annoying change from earlier versions of stock alert besides the inability now for it to work properly is the decision that MY PART NUMBER isnt really important and that the description is
When you guys finally get the Stock alert working please reinstate the Part Number column and could you please also add a column for the suppliers part number and allow us to sort by both those columns as well
this would definitely help when trying to control stock levels and purchasing

Hi DazzaB
Thank you for your feedback in regards to this idea and others.
The development team do look into ideas that will assist all clients and partners along with accountants. The In Tray is a great example of this. It allows users to scan in documents so that it may save some data entry of that information. It can also be used for accountants or auditors to check the original document to make sure that the transaction was entered appropriately.
Along with the primary focus of the development team for previous updates has been fixing known issues within the program. While we are aware that there are some known issues still within the program future updates are planned to correct those updates and workflow improvements.
Once again thank you for your feedback, I have shared it with the team.
