GP v7.5 Importing POs

Posted on by 740

Noticed when importing POs that the text file records for a PO do not line up the same way when imported to a PO.

Issue:  Users add comment on PO line one in text file, however when imported, that line one in the file may end up as line 5 on the PO.

Cannot determine how import determines which line is one, two three  What is the sort order if not the record order in the text file?

What to control which text file line ends up as PO line #1.

I reviewed the purchase order integration destination mapping and did not see PO Line

as a field that could be mapped to.  That was my thought to use that field, but, it wasn't an option.

How can I get the ability to sort, or set the data entry order when the file is integrated. We are on v7.5.

    GP documents like sales orders and purchase orders do not record a line number like 1, 2, 3, et cetera.  They use values like 16xxx, 32xxx, 24xxx, et cetera (create a dummy PO with 20-30 lines to get the line sequence number).  This is done to allow a user to add a line before line 16xxx which would be numbered 8xxx, et cetera.

    Then you should be able to attach the comments to the proper position number.
