  2. Select a Product and click the Interchange segment. (This segment only supports editing one product at a time).

      4. Choose an Equivalent UOM (Unit Of Measure) from the drop-down.
      5. Enter a Part Number and choose a Brand from the drop-down menu. These are required fields.
      6. You can manually enter a new brand by clicking the Brand not on List toggle switch.
      7. For interchanging with OEM parts, choose OEM in the Quality field and OE in the Type field.
      8. You can add Public and Internal Notes at the bottom. Don't forget to click Save.
