Carri, The packing slip doesn't have an invoice # on it? If that's the case, perhaps MIke's idea about using the PO # is better. I'm a bit concerned about shipments containing odd mixtures of items from various POs; it seems more likely that a shipment will match an invoice than that it will match a PO.
As far your second paragraph about multiple copies, this is exactly why I got fuzzy in my original thinking. Thanks for the suggestions. -David On Mon, Jul 28, 2008 at 10:43 AM, Carri L.
