The purchaser ordered some office supplies on purchase order 13176.  After he had hung up he remembered one more thing.  He called the vendor and opened PO 13176.  When he added the new item the system appears to have coppied everything into the next PO.  Now there is nothing in PO 13176, however PO 13177 has all of the previous entry and the item added.
 
Any ideas as to what happened?
 
Thanks,

This scenario just happened to us.  The first PO duplicated the description fields. That same item appeared on a PO for a different vendor. When the second PO is viewed on the screen it shows only one line item, but when printed, then you can see the item that appeared.  Now, when the first PO was received ( the one with duplicate description fields), the receipt did not post to PO-D, nor can it be invoiced under AP-C gives a msg, "Not Valid PO", however, it shows under inventory transactions IN-E and inventory inquiry IN-A
I find this problem similar to the one described here first.  But the solution is not given.  Please help.  Thanks!
