Hello we have a bit of a unique scenario. We primarily dropship all our orders. Due to inventory restraints at times one of our vendors allows us to purchase inventory ahead and store as “virtual” inventory till we need it.
We then submit a PO to this vendor for shipping and they return a 0.00 AP Bill (since we already own the product) for the items + freight charges and any serial numbers that may apply to the product shipped.
We would like to be able to monitor our inventory at the vendor for proper financial reporting, but would also like to be able to process the order as a drop ship PO instead of a shipment from one of our warehouses as we also drop ship other items from this vendor in the normal drop ship fashion and depending on the combination of items the PO would need to be shipped from the vendor’s stock instead of our “virtual” stock switching SO lines between Drop Ship and Shipping from our warehouse will be difficult.
Has anyone done anything similar to this?
