I know that several of you have suggested creating multiple POs with
the store number appended to the PO Number. Why? If your system has
created multiple PO #s they are already unique. Why go through a
system change to "sometimes" have a PO # with the store number
appended and "sometimes" have a regular PO#?
Jayne,
You said: "In the new world, the same purchase order number could be
used for multiple ship-to locations." Is that a "could" or
a "must"? I agree with what I perceive to be the majority opinion
and go with the multiple-PO approach. I think, in the long run, that
your Receiving Dept., A/P, etc. will love you as a result.
Here at Gorilla Glue we do get SDQ orders, thankfully not a lot of
them. Some of the retailers do it well, others do not and they are
the headache requiring custom solutions each time. We have
Gentran:Server feeding into Great Plains (with vSync as the
integrator). Between the three of them we get it done (Great Plains
& vSync check for Duplicate POs but don't require them. They
obviously ignore the warnings when creating separate orders for each
SDQ location).
