PO Generator not listing correct information but Purchase Advice Report is correct

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by baxter05

I have 1 item setup to 1 site with Order Point Qty set to 80.

I have 44 on hand, 22 allocated, 22 available, 30 on backorder, 25 on order.

Print Purchase Advice Report for site, using Order Point Qty, shows me Qty To Order 63. This is correct.

Go to the Purchase Order Generator, choose item, choose site, it generates a listing saying the Order Quantity is 30 .

 I verified that the PO Gen Item Maintenance window has Order Method - Order to Independent Site, Replenish Level set to Order Point Qty.  I also confirmed that the Order Police on the Item Resource Planning Window has been set to "use PO Gen" for the item-site combination for this window and not the default..

This is all setup properly. Why is it not displaying this item to generate the 63?? 

I have tried other Item numbers and it seems to work but if ONE Item is off, then other Items could be as well and the PO Generator become unreliable.

I'm being asked to provide an explanation - I could really use some assistance.

    Pam,

    I am not sure if you have checked this or not:

    If you click on the Suggested Purchase Order line with the issue and then click the blue expansion arrow next to the Item Number field, that will open up the Suggested Purchase Order Detail window.  Here, click on the blue expansion arrow next to the numerical value in the "Required Qty in Base U of M".  This will show you a more detailed breakdown of how the value has been calculated.  Perhaps this will show you enough detail for you to determine why it is suggesting that value?

    I see where my understanding of information is incorrect - I see from the above that there are 33 ON ORDER FOR NEW PO'S (PO'S THAT HAVE NOT BEEN RELEASED YET)

    Boy, I sure wish that field was listed on the Item Inquiry screen.  That would save me a lot of grief from people fussing at me that the data is incorrect.

    Thank you so much for pointing me in the right direction.

    Have a great day!
