Purchase order is pulling the Ship To address from the PO header and not the line item

The box to print separate POs for different addresses is checked. It is a regular PO not drop ship and it is happening for all POs. Does anyone know how to resolve this?

Thanks!

Hi NOLA,

is this a modified / Custom PO Blank report ? or is this the standard GP report. Can you please check the security for Alternate Forms / Reports.

I too am betting it's a modified report. I just entered a PO with different Ship-To addresses and it printed two POs..

Kind regards,

I would love to open this discussion back up. I am finding that the Ship to Address pulled on the PO depends on the item type being purchased. I am not sure why or how but this is what I am seeing. The modified vs standard report isn't a factor in my case. Just want to see if anyone else finds this to be true?

Hi,

The "ShipTo" address is based on the Site ID location at the line item level in the PO.. so if the buyer enters a site ID (lets say B1) which is has a different "ShipTo" location then the main PO header, then the Address on the report is going to be different..

GP is going to group the output based on the ShipTo address if you checked the box during the print process "Print One PO per Address" :

If you don't check that box, GP is going to print the ShipTo address at the end of the line items group, and put a comment in the header of the report..

This happens if you use the out-the-box default POP Purchase blank form.. if you customized the reports, the logic may have been broken and not work (in our case, it prints the items without the page-break when a change of ShipTo should occur... instead, the 1st page has one address, the 2nd the next address going with the other line items). Somehow the partner didn't paid attention to this when they customized our POP report, or the company told them that this is not a common situation, so they wouldn't care.

Hope this helps to grasp the logic.
