P43060 Blanket order release - multiple blankets onto one Purchase Order for one Supplier.

Hello there,

I have been trawling previous discussion threads, KM docs and BUGs trying to get a definitive answer on this and would be glad of some clarification of the process, please.

If multiple OBs are released in one go, for the same supplier, before then taking the Form Exit to Generate Purchase Order, then we would expect these all to be released together onto one Purchase Order, but we are getting multiple Purchase Orders generated.

How is this supposed to work?

I'd expect if it were the same supplier, then they could all appear on the same PO.

However, the P4310 Process tab, option 2 (below) called by the version of P43060 used to generate OPs from OBs seems to list a lot of parameters that need to be equal, (including item?!) in order for consolidation to occur. (if option is populated with a 1 or 2)
