Hi,
is the customer likely to be searching for a part # that you are aware of and will be stocking in the near future? Or are the part #s for items that you will not be including in the database?
If so, you could set up a product record to be included in searches which contains a list of part #s in perhaps the pother2 field. You will have to add this field to the xsearchfields in the Cart Setup. You could have the description as: This item will be available soon, or please contact us for details. I have done something like this for products that get discontinued, I set up 10 product records for this purpose, with all the ccode numbers in the pother2 field. It's better to let the customer know that a product has been discontinued rather than just telling them that it cannot be found.
Hope this helps,
Carrol
