Hello,

Need to send one PO to vendor along with parts for treating.

However, the PO needs to be linked to multiple production orders.

Can this be done in ACU?

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Larry

Yes, if you have set up Outside Processing as recommended in the help and marked the PO Items as Purchase when the item has the Subcontract in the BOM Material line, the it will automatically put the item in the Create Purchase Order form where you can cut a single PO for multiple production orders.

Thanks Dennis!

If we create the PO from production order details, how do we get other production orders on the PO?

OR should we create the PO from a different screen?

When an item has a Material Type of Subcontract and a Subcontract Source of Purchase it puts it on the Create Purchase Orders form automatically.  So it you have multiple production orders that required a PO from the same vendor, that’s where you should create the PO and not use the production order to create them.  Make sure the BOM has the vendor specified on the Outsource tab.
