    We are having a very frustrating issue in which occasionally, a requisition will split into two purchase orders.

    When we discover it and go back to look at the requisition, some of the lines will have Vendor "A" and some lines will have vendor "B" even though the requester set a vendor at the header level and SWEARS that they are not editing the lines to put a different vendor on them.

    We do not have any IC12's setup.

    We do not use PO25's.

    We do not use PO13's (any more).  We did have some but deleted them several months ago.

    Is there a setting or something else I'm missing that when adding an item from the item master or adding a special that would change the vendor and/or vendor location when adding to the requisition?

    I'm out of ideas!

      PO01.4 - check Vendor and Vendor Purch From Defaults and verify the Req Header is set to 1.

      Also - are you on v10? You can now audit the req and verify the user put the vendor in the header prior to adding the line. We have some instances of "oh yeah" in our bill only process going back and changing the header and then adding more lines. This - to them - is not editing the line.

        Thanks, Kat. I'll try that change.
        We have it set to Vendor Agreement 1, Item Source 3, and Header 2. This was because we DID have agreements and PO13's for a bit. I guess it's retaining some things even though we deleted the PO25 and PO13 records.
