Thanks Andrew. I didn't think it could since I couldn't find any references at all in the manual. (which I have almost memorized by now)
Sales commission are tracked by customer not orders and PO numbers are assigned with blanket POs by the customer base (if they use them at all). So their are usually many orders that have the exact same PO number.
I just need to keep in mind that I am using the OE program slightly different that what it is usually used for (selling services and not inventory per se) and not everything will match up to my needs perfectly all the time.
I appreciate the answer which means I will stop looking at it from that point of view and solve things differently. Maybe I can consolidate the orders from my third party system prior to being imported into OE.
Thanks again.
