How to create multiple PO for different suppliers from one SO or MR

Hi All,

I am new to the system so trying to testing it at this stage.

I have a product which includes dozen items in the BOM. BOM items are supplied by various suppliers. Say i have 5 different suppliers that i need to get the BOM items. In the Item definition I have specified which item to be supplied by whom.

I expect system to be able to create 5 POs for each of the suppliers with their related items included in each of them.

At the moment it creates just one PO including everything in it.

Is there a settings that enables this breakdown automatically? If no how others are getting around this issue at the moment?

Thanks,
Saeed

Hi Umair,

Thanks for the link. This will do what I want for now.

I think it would be valuable feature for the system to to make say 7 POs for 7 suppliers based on the default item supplier from the MR automatically.
With the link you suggested i need to create 7 POs one by one by selecting each supplier. It also will reduce the chance of forgetting to raise PO for one or some of the suppliers.

Thanks for it anyway.

Saeed
