Store default warehouse to insert in the PO header storage dimension, when a PO is created from the PO

Shafraz Khalik on 2/21/2023 10:29:31 AM

It was a great addition from the product team to include a 'New Purchase Order' creation option from the POS.


However, we noticed that the warehouse dimension is missing in the PO header. This is a must-have feature where it will be easy for the procurement team to identify easily from the "All purchase orders" inquiry form from which store the PO got raised.


I would like to see this implemented in the coming upgrades at the earliest.

RE: Store default warehouse to insert in the PO header storage dimension, when a PO is created from the PO

Hi All,


Yes it is best idea to update the Site and warehouse when we are creating the Purchase order from the POS.


i have 2 different retail industry.

  1. Core Retail Store (e.g., Grocery Store):
  • Items: Consumable items with a short shelf life (e.g., milk, curd, frozen chicken) with expiry dates within 1 week of manufacture.
  • Multiple stores and warehouses receive items.
  • Requirement: Automatically update site and warehouse information at both header and line levels when creating a PO from the POS. This ensures accurate tracking and inventory management across all locations.
  1. Flower Retail Industry (e.g., Florists):
  • Items: Flowers imported from other countries with a maximum shelf life of 5 days.
  • Mobile van stores receive items directly from harbor/airport cargo upon import.
  • Requirement: Similar to the core retail store, update site and warehouse information automatically at both header and line levels when creating a PO from the POS. This facilitates efficient inventory tracking, especially for perishable items with unpredictable quantities upon receipt.

In both cases, the challenge lies in not knowing the exact quantities shipped by the supplier until receipt. in both the same user does not know how many quantities were shipped until we recieve the product. based on the we are creating the PO from POS and receiving it.

Implementing these features will streamline inventory management and ensure timely tracking of perishable items across all locations, enhancing operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.
