    I have a requisition containing 2 lines.

    One item displays the Vendor, Vendor Item and Manuf. Code/Number.

    The other one displays only the Manuf. Code/Number.

    I've checked each item and verified that PO28, PO25.6, PO13.3, IC12 and IC11 are correct, so I don't know why information would be missing from one of the items.

    I attached a screen shot of the req.

      Is IC12.2 set up for item 10180?

        Hi Jon,
          Yes, 10180 has an IC12 record.

        The only difference I notice in the set up between the two items is that the 42065 has a sub account on IC11, where the 10180 does not.

        My director looked at the set up and agrees that we see no impactive difference betweent the two.

        I attached screen shots of each item set up if you want to take a peek.

        By the way, are you planning on attending Inforum in September?

          I was referring to IC12.2 Replenishment Setup. In IC12.1 if you go to the Source tab and click on Replenishment it takes you to IC12.2. Do you have a vendor selected for this item in IC12.2?

            No, there is no vendor set up for this item. I was trained to leave this blank when creating an IC12, unless the item is a LUM item.

            Here's some information I found out. I was also trained that when a new item is added to Lawson and a user goes to RQC to order it for the first time, there will be no price shown. The user must enter the price manually the first time and then every subsequent order, the price will default.

            This morning, I added the sub account to 10180 (user ordered this item yesterday and the manuf. info DID NOT display on the req.)

            After that, I visited the user and he placed a 2nd order for 10180 and this time, all of the manufacturer information was displayed as it should be.

            I'm not sure if it was because I added the sub account or if it's because the first time order was placed yesterday and somehow that "set" the system to pull the information for all subsequent orders of this item.

            I'm still trying to learn how Lawson is suppose to work from the starting point of when an item is ordered. It seems like here at our hospital, items do not behave the same way during the ordering process.

              We build the IC12.2 for all items, stock or nonstock. This way we can default the correct Vendor/Purchase From combination for the item on the req line since this drives the correct ship-to account for EDI and fax POs. The only way I was able to duplicate your issue was to remove the replenishment setup for an item.

                Not really able to help the issue - but why are you building non-stock IC12s at all? We used to prior to 9.0 but once the account information could be stored on the IC11, we stopped. The RQ01 establishes from location and issue accounting unit. That's what drives our EDI. So our defaults are from the vendor agreement. As long as it's not on hold and released, the reqs find it.

                As for Bev's case - does the IC12 drill around think you have stock on hand (even though it's non-stock) or does it show anything on the reorder tab at all that might make it think it's an inventory backorder and not a replenishment?

                  For us the ship-to account translated to the 850 is driven by the Location/Vendor/Vendor Loc/Company combination in ED40

                  MID 34MID10010, ALM 34ALM10010, ALM 34ALM20010, for example.

                  If there's no IC12 record where is last received cost stored?

                    Can I resurrect this thread? I'm having the same issue. My item, however, does not have an IC12 record. We never enter any of our nonstock items in IC12, so I can't imagine that is the issue.

                    I have an entire req template of items that are showing a zero cost. I've deleted the item from the template and re-entered it, deleted it from the agreement and re-entered it. The UOM from IC11 is the same as the one on the agreement. Participants all look ok. I just can't get it to pull the vendor info and pricing into the req template. It displays the agreement reference on the line item, but doesn't link any of the other vendor info.

                      Can you post screen captures of the template, agreement lines with at least one of the lines on the template screen capture, and participants (just to humor me) screen?

                        for this thread, focus on item # 115501

                        Also, I posted this a moment ago and then deleted it because I thought I had it figured out. In the screenshot for PO15.1, there is an agreement reference in the template header...but even after deleting that, still all $0 in rqc

                          May I see the item detail for template item 115501? It looks like you cut it off in your PO15 screen cap. Also may I see the participant screen for the agreement (PO25.3)?

                              Your items in the template are Special type items, so they can't connect to the agreement because the agreement items are nonstock. When you add an item to a template and enter anything in the Description field, the item becomes a Special. Delete the item and re-add it without entering anything in that Description field, let the Item Description default from IC11. I'm pretty sure you'll see the cost show up on the template in RQC then.
