Multiple contacts under one Vendor card, and selected contact changes information card

Posted on by RichardLa 225

Hello to all,

Call me old school, but we are still using Nav 5.0 at my workplace. We have a multi-sub structure where we have one parent with subs under that parent. We have the dilemma whereas a Vendor have multiple contacts (phone, fax, email). When a person creates a PO, selects a Vendor, they want to select the right contact and have the header information change.

I have tried to have a link between Person contact and Copmany contact, but the Person contact does not influence the header information on the PO, or other card the uses this type of logic.

Any help will win some Quebec brownie points!!!! :)

    Hi Suresh,

    I'm assuming that the modification suggested is to have a dynamic way of changing the purchase order header based on the chosen contact, correct?

    Thanks.

    Richard,

    You need to do modification to achieve this,  please check the sales header it does update the address information based on contact for quotes. You need to update the function on the purchase header table  UpdateBuyFromVend to update the address fields from the contact table.

    I wish to change the Adress fields, phone number, fax, email, and whom to contact.

    Wish to see the changes on the header and report.

    Thanks.

    which fields do you want to change on the purchase order header?

    do you want to change the used fields on the purchase-order report?
