Hello:
We are currently using the Purchase Order Generator to help our warehouse with its inventory control and stock levels. It seems to be functioning fine but I have a question regarding the vendor selection within it. Right now I am starting the set up of an item is to:
1. Go to: Cards-->Inventory-->Quantities/Site.
2. Enter Item number, site id and enter primary vendor id then click save.
At this point I will then go and walk through the steps documented in this web page:

My question is that was posed to me by the warehouse is some of our inventory items may have 3 potential vendors that we order from. Generally we will only order from one particular vendor but at other times a different vendor may have a lower cost. If we want the system to suggest PO's based on the vendor who has the lowest cost for the item should I simply change the Vendor Selection in step to from "Site Primary Vendor" to "Vendor With Lowest Cost" ? Or is there another option to set the primary that we want to go with normally but if their cost goes up the system will revert to another vendor who had the lower cost? Thanks for the help and guidance.
