3 Parts Search The search function will be an important tool for all partners to look up the correct part number when ordering. You have the choice to search for part of the part number, part description or the product family. This allows you to enter some of the part number, part description or the product family and have the search engine pull up all matching choices.

The most common function will be the Search within Product Category For.

In the example below, a customer needed a low density QX-830, single line or beam, and serial output. To order this we need a part number. To find the part number you can enter “830” in the ‘Like’ field and click .

4 Parts Availability Once the part number has been determined you can then enter that part number into the Part Availability section on the lower left half of the Product Catalog page. Enter both the part number in the “PART ID:” window along with the quantity in the “QUANTITY:” window that you need and click

The Order Management System will check our current stock levels of that part against what you have entered and provide you an estimated ship date or “Est. Ship Date: 06/21/2012”. This ship date you can use for your order or your Customer Requested Ship Date.

If you are planning to order the part you can also skip this step and the estimated ship date is also shown when you open your cart or check out.
