When I do a purchase order & use import OE lines on the first screen & put the order # in from o/e, the vendor item will not show up on the details screen & will not print on the purchase order. If I enter a purchase order & do not retrieve the order from o/e & I enter the item number in, the vendor item comes up. How can I change this?

Hi Nicole,

I've found that the retrieval of the Vendor item number from the item is inconsistant when using the 'Import from OE' feature to add details to a PO. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not, and sometimes only a portion of the vendor item number is retrieved.

If the Auto-Generate function from the Process menu is used to create POs from OE orders, the vendor item number appears to be retrieved successfully in all cases. So it is just the 'one-off' orders from the PO Header screen that is an issue, as you found.

In any case, I will write this up to address in a future release. Thanks for letting us know.
