Best way to handle situation when company has a Bill To and a Ship Address when cutting purchase orders

Posted on by 75,730

Client has headquarters in one town and their distribution facility in another. When they go to cut purchase orders they have to keep selecting the Ship To address code. Why does the Company Address Screen not have a Bill To and Ship To Address ID? They would prefer to have the Ship To address code always default to their distribution facilities address.

    You could use a SQL Server trigger on POP10100 to change the PRSTADCD (Primary Ship-To Address Code) column to the value needed, when a record is inserted. You will also need to change the purchasing address fields. Since the header is the first things that gets created (before you enter the lines) this should allow those changes to roll down to the lines too.

    Shameless plug... we are happy here at Mekorma to write you a customization for this. Feel free to contact MikeM AT mekorma DOT com should you want to consider this option.
