RE: Combining Jobs and Drop-Shipping
Hello,
Thank you for the question.
When you purchase an service item and include the Job information on that purchase line, then it is essentially a drop ship as it will be associated with the job. The lines of the job (including the service item and resource costs) can then be billed to the customer via (sales) invoices that are generated from the job.
Yes, this is a bit different from the traditional, supply chain drop ship functionality where you can generate a Sales Order and then from that a Purchase Order. As you have found this traditional, supply chain drop ship functionality doesn't support Jobs.
Is there any specific function from the traditional, supply chain drop ship functionality which you are needing to use, but which is not working for you as you process the Purchase document with the Job information on the lines?
