Lawson PO Numbers

It's the PO revision number - whenever we transmit a PO with a PO Code, Lawson transmits both the revision number and the PO Code. No PO code just transmits PO number. We've seen it but have never had it cause an issue.

Actually it's the release number.  If you set up a blanket agreement every time you create a PO using PO27 it creates a new release number.  The release number is always 0 for non-blnaket POs.  But as Kat said if the PO number includes a PO code the full number will be printed on the PO: [PO Number] - [ReleaseNumber] - [PO Code]

Thanks for the replies. And neither had an issue with a vendor including the dashes in the PO number?

We have not but then we don't typically transmit POs with PO codes via EDI.  Our codes are built for capital and services which generally don't go through EDI.

Same. We've only received in a few 810s for POs with PO Codes, but I haven't heard that it caused issues. We're using GHX and the ED10 process is laws_inb_91 and map is 91X_810_IN
