Changing the Contact Name on the Bill To in SOP

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 1,295

I am working in version 10.0 of SOP.  I create an invoice and zoom down on the Bill To Address and change the contact information, print the invoice, and post.  Then I go in and create a new invoice for the exact same customer and again, zoom down on the same bill to address as the previous invoice, and change the contact name.  I then print and post the invoice.

Now if I go do a lookup on the previous invoice I posted, it changed the contact name to the name on the second invoice I processed.  So now both invoices show the contact name for the second invoice I processed.

Is the system working as designed or a bug?  You would think that since you posted the first invoice it would keep the contact name in tact.   

 

Thanks,

Nancy Hogan

    Hi Nancy, when you change the bill to address details from within a sales order, you are changing the master record - not the details just for this one sales document.

    Compare this to the ability to edit the Ship to address ID on the sales order - if you click on the blue arrow to the right of the ship to address ID field - then you get to a window where you can edit the ship to address details just for this order.

    This is not the case with the Bill to Address ID - changing these details also changes the master record. - and therefore all documents that reference this master record are updated.

    This is the way the software is intended to work.

    Best regards.
