Title: PO# field for the Ship To customer
Post by Brian Snyder on 04/28/09 at 09:40:18

This is one we asked about awhile ago and could sure use it:

We would like to see a dedicated purchase order field for the "SHIP TO" customer. We currently use either the "COUNTRY" field or the "ATTENTION" field, but many times those areas need to be used. It would be best to move the "BILL TO" purchase order field up under their name/address area and add the "SHIP TO" purchase order field under their name.

Over half of our orders are sold to distributors that want us to drop ship the order to their customer and reference the end users PO# but there is no place to put it.

We have the same problem. As a temp solution we put the ship-to PO# in to the "JOB NO" field since we do not use this foeld for anything else. We modified the RTM to indicate that this is the PO for the ship-to and shifted the field into the area where it is prominantly visible for the receiving party.

We use our JOB NO. field but have worked around it by using the country field. It would be nice if we didn't have to work around it. Drop shipping is a very common procedure and having dedicated "Ship To" PO# field is standard with most software that distibutors use. It seems like it would be a fairly easy update, it wouldn't need to link to any reports.
