    Does anyone know where the Terms Code in PO20.2 (PCR-TERM-CODE) comes from?  We need to change the value that's listed here for a vendor but not sure where it's coming from.  Trying to avoid updating every PO for this vendor.

      I think the terms are kept on the vendor location - AP10/AP10.2. We (Purchasing) don't touch them - it just flows over from the remit to that is set up for the vendor.

        In PO20 it defaults from the vendor setup in AP10 or AP10.2 but it is built and maintained in TE01.2.

          Also, stated in a previous post on this forum, in PO23 if you're building POs and changing vendors and don't clear the fields (Ctrl-Shift-K) header information including terms from the previous PO/vendor may carry over to the next PO/vendor.

            AP10 and AP10.2 are showing 1% and PO20.2 is showing 2%.  We rarely ever manually build anything in PO23.  Just about everything comes from reqs. users have put in and we have a PO100 job that pushes everything from PO23 to PO20.  Would clearing our the terms still be needed with this process?

              Shouldn't affect POs created by PO100. Are the terms consistent on every PO for this vendor?

                Take a look at Vendor Agreement - on the HEADER TYPE SPECIFIC tab you can enter Payment Terms that will take precedence over the AP10/AP10.2. I doubt this is the case, but it's worth looking into (You can find the exact agreement that is in use on a PO on the PRICING Tab, then go to PO25 and look at the HEADER TYPE SPECIFIC Tab to see if there is a value in the PAYMENT TERMS field)

                  Thanks for all of the suggestions.  I've checked PO25 and we don't have any value listed there.  The data is not consistent and that's what's throwing me off.  Some PO's are showing 1% which matches up with AP10.2 and other PO's are showing 2%.  I pulled a quick sample of PO's and about 15% are showing the incorrect value of 2%.

                    Have you checked the audit to see if the terms code was changed manually? And are you sure this 15% of POs for this vendor were not created via PO23?

                      I'm not seeing that the terms were changed manually.  It doesn't appear that it matters what purchase from is attached to the PO.  We have 2 purchase froms that don't have any term codes in AP10.2 and yet there are term codes on the PO.  I've checked some PO's and they've all came from requisitions.  May need to get Infor involved.
