While working in the Inventory Planning Display, I noticed the Group Nbr. column when generating a Purchase Order. The screen lets you assign a different Group Nbr. to each line, but when I run the process, I still only get one PO (as long as the vendor is the same).
My questions:
-
What is the intended purpose of the Group Nbr. field in this context?
-
Should assigning different numbers automatically split the lines into separate POs?
-
Or is this field just informational unless you have specific consolidation settings or customizations in place?
In my setup, Purchase Order Preferences and Inventory Preferences don’t have any options related to consolidation or grouping by Group Nbr., and in Create Purchase Orders (PO505000) I don’t see a “Group by Group Nbr.” option either.
Has anyone successfully used this field to create multiple POs? If so, how is it configured?
Thanks in advance!
