Coming Soon: On April 2nd, all Suggestion Boxes will be migrating to The Network, Trimble's online user community. Your posts, votes, comments, and user accounts will transfer. This site will become read-only after the migration, and this banner will have a link to the new location for Vista suggestions.

Auto select correct Purchase Order in PO Change Order creation (from PO screen)

When in PM Purchase Orders if you choose to create a Purchase Order Change Order (hitting Create at the top, choosing Purchase Order Change Order) it opens up the Purchase Order Change Order screen. The expected behavior is that (like the project number) the PO# would come over from the PM Purchase Order screen to the PO Change Order screen. Unexpectedly - what is happening is that the PO# in the PO Change Order screen is just set to the first PO for the project.

It would be wonderful (and intuitive) if the PO# in PO Change Order matched the PO# selected in PM Purchase Order upon creating the PO Change Order. Projects and Subcontracts work this way, so I think our users get caught off guard when PO#s don't follow suit, and this has caused some mistakes in data entry.


Thanks!
