Why a purchase order line (not linked to any agreements when created) automatically links itself with a corresponding purchase agreement line (i.e. with an agreement line for the same item-vendor defined into a valid purchase agreement) when the delivery date of the PO line is changed?
Is there a way to not let it happen?
Example (R3 standard environment):
1) I've created a new purchase agreement for the vendor 1001 which only include one line, referred to the item A0002 (this agreement line is valid from 5/16/16 to 6/30/16)
2) I then proceed to manually create a purchase order referred to the same vendor for the same item. This PO is not linked to the previous purchase agreement, nor anyone else.
If i change the delivery date on the Purch line, AX tells me that "A matching agreement line has been linked to the PurchLine":
The problem is that one of our customers has recently started to massively use mrp actions on purchase orders, specifically those which can advance/postpone the delivery date, so they sometimes find purchase orders (already manually created) with different line prices (they often set the price manually, given the negotiation with the vendor, but the execution of the mrp actions causes the change of the line price - AX inputs the price defined on a valid existing agreement).
Thank you!

I have the same question (0)I believe you can deactivate the automatic purchase agreement link on the master planning parameters. You can find it at the Standard Update tab.
