I'm testing Purchase Requisitions. If the user submits a requisition that does not have a Site ID or Vendor ID. It goes through workflow fine and can be approved. However, when you try to convert it to a Purchase Order, there is a place to set the Vendor ID and Site ID while generating the PO. However, it never populates the Ship To address and give me a error. I cannot find a place to manually the address during the PO generation. What am I missing?

Also if you do not have inventory control turned or registered it will give you an error that a site id is not assigned and that it will not be included in the po generation process, however it will still generate.
Hello George
What you are saying is precisely correct, once the requisition is submitted for approval and has obtained the required approvals, you can enter a vendor and site ID on the generate to PO window. Although, you still can't fill in the Ship to address fields without which a PO will not be generated.
In case the first option (re-adding the ship to address which will result with re-submitting the requisition for approval)is not acceptable; and it is practically not accepted, you need to go with option two; database update. Here are the tables to update: POP10200 (header) and POP10201(detail)
I have been in the same case, and considered the update table method, since it is not logical at all to re-submit the requisition for approvals.
Let me know if you need any further assistance regarding the fields to be updated.
Your feedback is highly appreciated,
Rob,
Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm not using Business Portal. I'm trying to find where to change it on the generation screen, because if you edit the Requisition, it has to come out of workflow and be resubmitted. It's an extra step that will confuse users.
George, this can be set when reviewing the purchase request via Business Portal prior to PO generation.
Thanks
Rob
