  1. Select Requisition to Order in the Operations menu. The Requisition to Order Parameters dialog box opens.
  2. Select the Centralize Purchase check box. The Site field will be enabled. (How to default to Centralized Site?)
  3. In the Site list, select the site that will perform the purchasing for the demand. You can choose any site to which you have access. A new fetch of the qualified purchase orders will be presented in the lower pane of the window.

Hi,

Are you selecting multiple PR lines belonging to different sites from Purchase Requisition Lines table and then trying requisition to order from there?

If so, IFS will look at the requisition no’s you have selected, find the latest ID, and then set the Centralized PO site as this site.

Example:

  • 204252, which is the latest PR out of the selected is for site TFT. Site TFT is fetched to the Requisition to Order Parameters dialog (it is disabled until you tick the centralized order checkbox)

 

  • 204251, is now the latest out of the selected. This is now taken to the Requisition to Order Parameters dialog.

 

 If you are using Purchase Requisition form, then the PR header site is defaulted as the centralized order site.

 

Hope this helps.

We are selecting mulitiple PR with different sites and each time we have to select the centralized tick box and select the site. We only have one site for centralized. and we want that site to be the default site for centralized.

I don’t think there is a standard setting to govern the site for centralized POs as you request.
