Concerning an order for a product managed in stock:
If the product is managed in stock and the purchase site is not a storage site, then the system will propose the first storage site defined for the product.
If you enter a receipt site for which no Product-site record has been created, the system will offer to create it directly from the Product-site record.
If the product-site is not listed by the supplier, a blocking or warning message can be displayed based on the value of the ITMBPSFCY - Supplier-site referencing general parameter (ACH chapter, REF group). This control does not apply to inter-site orders.
If you change the receiving site, a message suggests that you run the default supplier search again:
From this information, you can use the Actions icon to:
Inter-company specificities: When the purchase order is of the inter-site or inter-company type, the receipt site is initialized to the receipt site entered in the default delivery address of the customer order associated with the purchase site of the purchase order. If the default delivery address associated with the customer defined by the purchase site does not specify the receiving site, then the first delivery address will be used, in alphabetic order, to identify the receiving site.
If no receiving site is defined for any of the delivery addresses for the customer associated with the purchase site, a blocking message is returned: Inter-sites: Delivery address not found for customer BP xxxx. In the same way, a blocking message is returned if the site identified does not belong to the same company as the purchase site (inconsistency in the database).
When the order is saved, the receiving site displayed in the order header will be same as the receiving site that has been chosen in the first line of the purchase order.
During the generation of the sales order, the delivery address used in the order line will be the delivery address identified by the receiving site entered on the purchase order line.
The system may prohibit the entry of different receipt sites on the purchase order lines in this context. This depends on the parameters linked to sales:
If the LINBPD - Ship-to clients on detail parameter (chapter VEN, group MIS) for the site defined by the supplier does not allow different addresses on the lines of a single sales order, then the receipt site is the same for all the lines in the purchase order. The receiving site entered on the first line of the purchase order will be automatically picked up by the next line without the possibility of modification.
If the customer related to the purchase site only authorizes completed orders, you can only enter one receipt site and one shipping site on the purchase order, for all the lines of the purchase order. The receiving site and the shipment site entered first in the purchase order will be systematically used in the next lines entered without the option of modification.
