this may be more of a logic decision than a bug, but here it is:

Refreshing products doesn’t maintain correct accessory info.
I Created a product with accessories, Added the product to project specifying qty 4 of the accessory, Refreshed product from DB. I Expected the option to include accessories OR expected accessory quantity to remain the same as originally indicated when i added the product. Instead, no option to specify accessory quantities was given and the default accessory quantities were included.

This comes up because of my need to "batch update" the pricing information in a large project from the master database. Our pricing is maintained in an external database which i dump into the master data table at the start of each day. I want to put the latest pricing in the project but if i've added prouducts with accessories i run into this problem.

Is there a better way to update pricing in a project without having to go line by line and update the items?

Seems like an "update field X (i.e. cost, price, labor hours, etc)" option in the PDM might be useful. Maybe similar to the way EZ Match works?

thoughts?

thanks.
