Prevent Part Revision Change in Register Arrivals

I need to prevent a purchase part on a purchase order from having the revision number changed in register arrivals. We have tested enforcing change orders, but this does not prevent someone in the Register Arrivals stage from changing a part numbers revision. The client requires that a change order must accompany “any” change after a purchase order is released.

Outside of an event or several events, is there a way to force any change on a purchase order to go through a change order?

‘Any change’ in the PO - no is the answer. 

Even if so, you will be challenged at Change Order as it does not cater a change in the revision number as highlighted in the Idea mentioned by Nikila. 

Two fronts for you I see, 

1- prevent a purchase part on a purchase order from having the revision number changed in register arrivals
2- supporting the change through change order

To start, for the first one, I think you can make the Revision No field not editable from page configurations.

I understand this is related but it is not the exact same issue. I will look to request an enhancement that the part revision number is not allowed to be changed in Register Arrivals. Thank you.
