Purchase Order Printing Enhancement

Did you know that there is a command to force all lines of a purchase order to print on the same physical document, even if you are special shipping each of the lines?

Generally it was assumed that when you elected special shipping in TopForm, that you were most likely shipping to multiple customer and/or warehouse locations. Therefore, TopForm would create a different purchase order document for each of the line items in order to clearly indicate to the vendor the shipping quantities and destinations. However, there are times when special shipping is invoked for other reasons. Perhaps you have multiple line items because the products are slightly different. Take the example of apparel. You might enter five different lines items to order five different sizes. However, you want all the shirts to ship to the embroiderer.

To take advantage of this feature, just enter S! (letter "S" and an exclamation point) in the Options field in Purchase Order Printing. Then, if all of the lines on the Purchase Order have the same "Shipping Point," for example "1," then all lines will be printed on a single purchase Order.

Please note that comparing actual addresses is unreliable, so we depend on the shipping point to determine if the same shipping destination in intended. Be certain to use a different shipping point for each line if you need multiple purchase order documents to print.
