Hello,
How can I have the Ship Method print on the PO form. I do see that the field is displayed, but even when I enter a value for Ship Method on the PO, it does not print on the form. I tried entering it on the PO header and on PO line, but it does not print.

Any tips?

Hope this helps!!!
Jay,
If you want to add the custom field to Word Template, print the modified report which was modified from Report Writer and save as a XML file. Then use the Word Template Generator tool to modified the modified report from Word and assign it to the company/customer/vendor.
Hope this helps!!!
Leslie,
I followed your steps on adding the ship method field to the Report Header and Page Header. I was able to get it to print on the PO form. However, when I tried to add it the Word Template, I don't see that field available to add. Am I missing a step?
Thanks,
Hi Jay,
Out of the box there is not a field in the shipping method spot of the PO report. If you have that field populated in the PO header, then the field in the Purchase Order Work table will give you what you want. First, make sure there is data in that field. Open your PO and click on the little blue arrow next to Vendor ID. You should see Shipping Method on the left side of the window. With that confirmed, it's time to print your PO to the window. Once the PO is being displayed, select the 'Modify' button at the top of the screen printout. Report Writer should launch showing the layout of your report.
Select the Shipping Method field from the Purchase Order Work table and drag it on to the report. You will need to add it to both the Report Header and the Page Header.
Save your report, grant yourself access and you should be good to go.
Kind regards,
Leslie
Just to ask a silly question - did you give yourself access to the modified report? As soon as you make any change to a standard report, it is now a modified version.
Jay, as you probably know, the PO prints the Ship Method at the line level. You need it to print in the header? What if you have multiple line items with different ship methods?
Thanks for reply Frank. The standard GP PO report already has the Ship Method. I added that field in the report but it still doesn't print. Am I suppose to create a custom field or use a different field?
You'll have to modify the report to have it print. What are you using to print forms? Report Writer, SSRS, Word docs, Crystal, etc?
