Combining reqs to a PO by vendor

We have a vendor that charges a fee per the # of PO's. Is it possible to combine all req's for vendor ABC to one PO?

It's part of the PO setups. PO01.4 the Single Document tab. Then on PO10/10.2 It sounds like you want the Location Control set to L (Comb reqs to PO line by loc) to put all req lines for a ship to location onto one PO.

You then need to look at the PO100 that runs and the line limit on it.

Definitely would want to run them through test.

What about also setting up order days in PO10/PO10.2? Would it be feasible to save up your orders in PO23 until one day in the week and group them into one PO then? We used to use order days in our old system but Lawson didn't have this option when we implemented 8.0.3 and we haven't needed to resume using them. I've never tested how it functions so I don't know if it's an easy setup.

KatVila,
Can this be done for 1 select vendor; not using the defaults PO01.4?

You can decide by vendor which to combine req locs by using the settings on PO10/PO10.2 rather than one company setting.

So what should the Single Document tab look like? Currently we have it at Requesting Location.

As the others have said, PO10/10.2 where I suggest trying it as L should do the trick.

I do not know what you would set the PO01 at - we do not do what you are asking.

*IF* PO10 doesn't work. I would try settin it to PO Vendor or Vendor Purch From Loc.
