Owens & Minor GLN & SDQ use in EDI 850s

We are configured to use GLNs with the EDI transaction records with supply vendor Owens & Minor.  For one of our hospital campuses, we have three locations that
get mapped to the same GLN value in the 850's N1ST04 element.   Each location is assigned a unique account number.

Owens & Minor has requested that we implement the use of SDQ segments in the 850 transaction records to allow them to identify how to palletize the orders for
delivery to the correct locations at this campus.

Two of the locations at this particular campus are stock rooms.   The primary stock room is configured as an inventory location, while the secondary stock room is not.   Currently, in our ED40(EDSUBTBL) records, both stock rooms are identified with the same SHIPTO identifier.   Different Purchase From values are used to differentiate the two locations.

In testing the setup for using the SDQ segments,  both locations are identified using the common SHIPTO value, so all orders would end up going to the primary
stock room location.

After making modifications in our TEST environment to change the SHIPTO values for each stock room to be unique, we retested generating the 850 transaction record for the secondary stock room.    The SDQ segments were generated, but the N1ST segment was no longer being listed.

Any recommendations on what modifications need to be made to our setup in order to have each stock room uniquely identified to support the use of the SDQ segments in the EDI 850 transaction records?

    If it helps - O&M can read both SHIP TO and DEPT. You can leave the ship to alone and also send the req loc from the PO Line Source with the ED40.
    So you have 2 ED40s
    List Name TPID_O_SHIP_TO
    Lawson Value IC02-VENDOR-PURCHFR-COMPANY
    External Value GLN FOR THE ADDRESS
     
    List Name TPID_O_DEPT
    Lawson Value RQ01-VENDOR-PURCHFR-COMPANY
    External Value OM ACCT FOR THE LOCATION
    This will send the req loc in a different segment than the ship to. Owens can combo the fields - or they used to for Memorial.
