SKU Search Transaction

The SKU Search is used to request SKU Numbers and associated information such as Category and Primary Part Description for a given list of Part Numbers and Catalog Manufacturer Codes. If either item does not match the data in the catalog, no SKU will be returned. It is up to the integrating software to maintain a mapping table between their Manufacturer Codes and the ones in the catalog.
