I think I stumbled upon an anwer on my own. Substitutions are big in my industry. For items that sub, we change the "require inventory" flag to yes. That way when we're out of the old inventory, these items automatically create an error(alert) when one tries to add to the cart or order. Now I just need to change the error(alert) message to include the fact that the part may have been sub'd by the manufacturer. Can someone point me toward a way to write the long description of the part into the error message? It would then alert the user to which part it changed to. Thanks in advance! Rick

Is there any way to flag or at least alert a user to the change in either sales order or cart checkout? Could a product "id" type of "Substitution" be used to produce an alert? Thanks in advance.
