Default PO overrun

Issue/Symptom/Question

Is it possible to default a PO overrun amount for only line items that have a Freight line item type code?

How can I change the PO Overrun amount or percent that defaults on Purchase Orders?

Instead of applying an overrun at the PO Line Item or Header Level, can I apply overrun globally on all POs?

Environment

  • PENTA for Windows
  • Purchase Order - Grid Option (Purchasing>Purchase Order - Grid Option)
  • System Configuration (System Management>System Rules>System Configuration>Purchasing tab)

Resolution/Fix/Answer

  • Currently, it is not possible to default a unique overrun amount or percent for line items that have a line item type of freight only.
  • Purchase Order overrun amounts and percents, as well as purchase order line item overrun amounts and percents can be setup to default system wide, in the System Configuration window.
  • The default overrun amounts and percents can be different by purchase order type.
