External item number

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hi,

In order to set up an external article number, I added a supplier under the approved vendors tab. Then from the external item description tab I associated for each vendor an external code. Finally i updated the form setup to include the vendor item number. But when selecting the item i the purchase requisition, i couldn't select the vendor or the external item description. Did i miss something?

    Hi Chourouk,

    Did you also setup purchase categories and made a list of approved vendors by category? Is this product linked to one of these purchase categories?

    Hi André,

    I'm still blocked in this matter. In fact, i noticed that the approver have access to the list of vendors and he's able to select a vendor to an item in the purchase requisition. But now  the problem that even when selecting the approved vendor which i associated an external item number, still this number is not showing?

    Hi Chourouk_Souissi,

    If you use specific item in the PR line, the default vendor selected is from the route: released product > purchase tab > ‘vendor’ field. But if you use Procurement category, vendor selection would be available  in PR line.

    In my tests, if you want the vendor account and external item number to be displayed simultaneously in the PR line, you need to select a specific vendor in the released product.

    One way I can think of right now is to first select a vendor, add it to the PR line, then return to the released product form and change it to another vendor, then add it again.

    Regards,

    QianQW
