That is true, but that isn't the issue. The issue is that my client's solution provider (software provider only, not a hosted solution), while supporting V 3.0, does not seem to support the Lowe's extensions to the CIN schema. Lowe's offers suppliers a facility to enter the additional data manually via the web, but since my client has several thousand SKUs for which this data would have be entered they don't consider this a workable solution. >The other option for your client is sign directly with 1SYNC. I am not recomending that because I don't know the details, but it is an option. My client is already signed up with 1Sync. I know you say you don't know the details, but I would be interested in the generalities of this option if it exists.
