Drop Ship POs for Items w/Multiple Vendors
Like a lot of people we have a number of items which can be supplied by more than one vendor. As designed, when we generate a drop ship PO off of a Sales order, the default vendor is populated.
The problem comes in when an order has two items on it (or more) which could be ordered from the same vendor, yet 1 of the items has a different vendor set as default.
If you click drop ship to generate a PO, the item which has a different default vendor does not show up. Now I have two options, neither of which are all that ideal. I can either manually add the other item to that PO, which will leave that line item looking like its not fulfilled once the item ships. Or I can do two separate POs, which just is a waste, and may result in the vendor needlessly sending separate packages if they don't catch it.
