When entering a PO or vendor invoice, I would like to use the Alternate ID that is referenced below. I was under the assumption that this was possible, but when trying it out I receive ‘No Results’ when typing OW092 in the inventory ID. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Hi @jenjen98 

The vendor cross reference is used for Purchase Orders, it does not work for Bills, which is where I believe you are trying to use it. 

Here is the help on that:

That’s unfortunate since we do not order these items. They are a ‘vendor managed inventory’ class of items and we only receive invoices for them.
