Removing characters from vendor item

There are two defined methods for GHX specific functionality to remove characters from a vendor item.

The first method is Web Req Check. Some customers use custom codes or strings in their vendor item numbers when using RSS/RQC. GHX provides functionality to remove those special codes or strings. It requires two Data Substitution records, that enables the web req check and that specifies the string to remove from the vendor item.

You may specify multiple strings to remove from a vendor item. The process removes the longest matching string, starting from the end of the item number.

The second method can specify a character or string of characters to remove from all vendor items. For example, if your vendor items all had VC# in front of them, then you can add a single record to always remove that string.
