Thank you for the response. I was assuming this to be the case.

I haven't been able to find a lot of educational material on the
dimensional tracking. We're just wanting to get an understanding of
its true functions. Anybody using this feature that would be willing
to share some insight? What we are looking for is a way to track
partial sizes of steel (either plate or bar stock) in inventory. With
dimensional tracking, do you have to create a record for every single
size that could possibly be put back to stock? Help.
Haven't received any responses to this email...is there anyone who is
willing to share information regarding the use of dimensional tracking?

I received just as many responses when I posted this on the Vantage
EpicWeb Forum. My gut feel is that, as much as people may want to use
it, it becomes to difficult to maintain as well as understand. I could
use it for the same reason you are looking for. Below is a response I
did receive from an EpicWeb Forum member. I hope this helps. And, no
I am not using it.

"Yes. Dimensional tracking for a part will allow you to know not only
how much you have in stock (100") but how many at a certain length 2 @
25", 2@ 15 " 2 @ 10"). Dimensions are set up separately for each part,
so it can be time consuming to set up and a bit agrivating later when
you have to add dimensions you didn't plan to have. But, if used
properly, it can help."

Good luck and would love to hear if you succeed with this.
