Direct delivery PO issues

A user has put 2 item requirements onto a project.

Line 1 = direct delivery

Line 2 = buy, deliver to users warehouse, later make a despatch

The user created a direct delivery PO for Line 1, as same vendor / same customer the user then added the 2nd line to the PO ( updated the delivery address as it is not using the direct delivery method ).

Issue 1 - The MRP cannot see the 2nd line and generates again a planned PO.

Issue 2 - When the GRN is processed, the direct delivery did not dispatch on the SO as the stock has been lost to a write off account through an InventTransaction.

Why is the issue happening and how to avoid problems ? The only solution I have found so far is to process 2 separate PO to the same vendor which causes additional transactions processing separate PO.

thanks
