What happens next

Section titled “What happens next”
  • The row flashes green for a few seconds and the cell shows the saved value. LAST UPDATED and UPDATED BY are read-only.
  • VENDOR PART #, VENDOR COST (USD) and LEAD TIME cannot be edited until the row has a VENDOR. If you switch the vendor, those three values carry over to the new vendor.
  • LIST PRICE (USD) is saved to the cent.
  • UPC can be filled in only while it is empty, and that change cannot be undone. See Set a product’s UPC.
  • To take back a change, click Undo at the top right or press Ctrl+Z (Cmd+Z on a Mac). Redo or Ctrl+Shift+Z puts it back. The undo list holds the last 50 changes you made on this visit to the page and is cleared when you leave it.
  • If a value is rejected, for example a SKU that another product already uses, an error message explains why and the cell keeps its old value.
  • If the product has been removed since you opened the page, Omni shows Product not found. Refreshing the list. and reloads the grid.
  • If an undo cannot be applied, a message starting Undo failed explains why and the change stays available to retry.
