Can a vendor be changed on a purchase order that has not been completed? i.e. PO was created with vendor A, but now it should be vendor B. PO returns a message that there is no Primary vendor so the vendor cannot be changed. Yet there seems to be a primary vendor on the PO.
Thanks

Hello Ed,

Yes, you should be able to change the vendor on a PO.

You need to be sure that, if you're making the change on the header tab, that you also visit the details as changing the header doesn’t automatically repopulate the vendor associated with each individual detail (you can have multiple vendors on a PO).

What is your ‘IC item vendor check’ option set to in his Company Profile, Interface Options tab?

What’s your ‘Allow vendor change on invoice’ option (same tab) set to? Enabling this allows you to change the primary or secondary vendor for a PO. Per the help:

Thanks Andrew. I'll check on this. I appreciate your help.

Hi,
The setting is also available to change the primary Vendor on the Invoice (as well as receipts) for completed receipts, for situations when say a PO is sent to a central distribution source, that ships and sells (and invoices) from various different subsidiaries, or for 3rd Party Freight companies when you don't know who is actually delivering the items ordered.

Best,
Brian

Hi,

The Allow Vendor Change on Invoice is unchecked presently. I guess it should be checked.
IC Item vendor check is set to "Manually"

Thanks Andrew and Brian for your quick and helpful feedback.
