Create purchase requisition in Branch 1 from purchase request created in Branch 4

When creating a purchase requisition and then a purchase order in Branch 1 from a purchase request created in Branch 4, the lines on the purchase order are created with a Branch 1 designation which is not correct.

When creating the requisition and purchase order in Branch 4 from a purchase request created in Branch 4, the purchase order lines are created with a Branch 4 designation, which is correct.

Our purchasing department typically work in Branch 1.  We don’t see a Branch designation on the purchase requisition screen which would notify the purchasing agent to switch to a different branch to create the requisition/PO.  The branch field is only visible on the PO line when created which is too late. Is there a solution we may be overlooking?

Thank you.
