| On Feb 15th some merging will occur in the database.
No matter what.
This Wednesday I (we?) received a BL message regarding the upcoming change.
With a link to a Help Page. Nice.
Until I clicked it....
If a seller wants to 'add a short line of text' for each lot affected,
sellers need to enterl more than 4000 numbers to check IF they are in their inventory.
And than manually editing the NOTE field.
This will take every seller hours of entering numbers, checking the results,
editing note-fields en checking for the edits to be correctly made.
Urgent request: can BL please provide a script or simple change page where
this actions can be (partially) automated?
Question for Admin_Russell: what happens exactly with my affected inventory entries
when nothing is changed on the sellers end?

With Notepad++, Excel and BrickStore it took less than an hour to update 416
lots.
No need to go through every single item, this way you can update all 30387pbxxx
(for example_ in 1 go, same with 3626b**** and 3626c****

I did this too pretty quick, just split screen one side Brickstore and the other
side this page:
