Hello,
My engineering group at work is mostly old guys (no offense to "the olds" on here) who inherited an access file on our server that somehow references an excel file... that references our ERP system (for some common items) when we have pricing contracts with suppliers for that specific component.
The guy that initially set these files up is long gone.
Most of what I source is pneumatic fittings. For some reason, this group that I just recently transferred to sources components even if we have standard fittings listed in product catalogs. Don't ask me why because I have no idea and they didn't like me suggesting to change this...
Anyways, I'm wondering if anyone can point me to good resources on learning how this works. The guy that's responsible for maintaining it knows very little about how it works and he's about to retire. So it'll be me learning on the fly and I don't want to be responsible for this when all I know is how to watch YouTube videos to setup VERY basic vba files.
Additionally, I'm wondering if there's a way to automatically open and scan multiple supplier website searches if I enter requirements or know a component has an equivalent... for current lowest price and current lead time. If that's possible.
Thanks.
