    Greetings,

    I have a scenario where two of the same item exists within a PO25 contract.  I cant speak to how it occurred, however it seems to have persisted within the system for several years.  My guess is someone added a new PO13 record on the item w/ a different Vendor pn#.  Then added that variant on PO25.

    Eventually a PO13 "Replace and Inactivate" was done which made both records duplicated.  Someone then removed the hold (before or after the R&I, cant be sure which). 

    At the moment, I can't hold either record, as I receive "Cannot enter two lines w/ same ven item, item, and UOM.

    Nor can I change the Ven# or delete as both lines have agreement refs against them. 

    What recourse do I have with removing one of these records?  Or putting it on hold?  I have seen this before but I think I was able to hold/remove in the past due to the sequence of events that did not produce this blocking logic. Any suggestions?

      We get dupes on the PO25 with same vendor item in error - usually a user error with PO13.3 like you describe. If it doesn't let you put one on hold.

      Go to PO13.3 - add a part number (we use WRONGITEM) - use A - you want to see both the correct part and whatever "bad" item you put in.
      Go to PO25.6 and go to the line you want to put on hold. Using FC C(Change) change the vendor item to WRONGITEM and click change. You should now be able to put line on hold and inactivate the WRONGITEM on PO13.3.
