It's not unusual at all. I've encountered this literally dozens of times.
However, you need to make sure YOU send a line item number in segment PO1,
element 1 of the 850 PO so your vendors can capture it and turn it around.
(Well, Ok, you don't "have" to send one, but it would be polite and your
vendors will appreciate it).
And don't ask your vendors to send *your* line item number if you're not
sending them EDI POs, unless you don't mind them casting disparagement on
the validity of your birth.
