Hello 😎,
User created 3 PO for same part no. The issue we found is that 1 of POs has different price.
The expected price is 0.9821, which is the supplier price for this purchase part, but one PO shows the price as 0.9800.
I have already checked the History Log and could not find any record of manual price changes.
At this point, I am unable to identify the root cause. Does anyone have suggestions on how to investigate this issue further or what could cause this price difference?
Are both purchase orders for the same quantity?

This is a common issue that can have several root causes. Let me walk you through the key areas to investigate when you have unexpected price variations on POs for the same supplier and part.
First, check these potential pricing sources:
Supplier Agreements - Navigate to Supplier for Purchase Part and check the Agreement tab. Look for any active supplier agreements that might override the standard purchase part price. Even if the main price shows 0.9821, an agreement with 0.9800 could be taking precedence.
Price Lists - In the same Supplier for Purchase Part window, check the Price List tab. There might be time-based price breaks or quantity-based pricing that could explain the difference.
Manual Price Changes on PO Lines - Even though you checked the History Log on the purchase part, try right-clicking on the specific PO line with the different price and select Detail History. This will show you if someone manually changed the price directly on that PO line after creation.
Other factors to investigate:
To troubleshoot systematically:
The fact that you're seeing 0.9821 vs 0.9800 suggests this might be a rounding issue or potentially a supplier agreement with slightly different terms. I'd particularly focus on the supplier agreement angle first.

Thank you for your replay🙂.
Based on my initial checks, we do not use Supplier Agreements on Supplier for Purchase Part screen.
There is a Price List with a valid price during the period when user created new PO.
The user who created the PO does not have permission to manually change price in PO Lines.
All three POs use USD as the currency, are under the same site, and were created by clicking New PO (manual creation).
