Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 7749  Name: Echo Base
* 
7749-1 (Inv) Echo Base
131 Parts, 5 Minifigures, 2009
Sets: Star Wars: Star Wars Episode 4/5/6

* Change {2 to 1} Part Black 48729b Bar 1L with Clip Mechanical Claw, Cut Edges and Hole on Side (Alternate)

Comments from Submitter:
Judging by other sets (e.g. 10197-1), the alternate count must match the regular count, not the sum of regular and extras.

There were different approach to deal with alternate to extras. See also this
tread https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1066533. I adjusted it as in this
set for example
 
Set No: 4939  Name: Cool Cars
* 
4939-1 (Inv) Cool Cars
206 Parts, 2007
Sets: Creator: Model: Traffic
I think this is the best way to deal with this problem.

I remember that discussion now. I was part of it, but I don't remember any
final decision was ever made. Only a suggestion to management.

So is your suggestion here (which is the same as in the other thread, and which
I think is good) the correct to handle the situation for the time being, i.e.
should I update any inventories that don't follow this pattern? It's
probably many.

Unless the inventory is too complicated. Like the Death Star:
 
Set No: 10188  Name: Death Star - UCS
* 
10188-1 (Inv) Death Star - UCS
3696 Parts, 24 Minifigures, 2008
Sets: Star Wars: Ultimate Collector Series: Star Wars Episode 4/5/6
