Inventory Location in Purchase Quotes/Orders (Delivery Address)

ideas

It’s currently not possible to make a Purchase Order/Quote to a specific inventory location.

I know that this piece of information will not affect the Inventory Quantities in Manager, but Delivery Address is a vital piece of information to be given to the Supplier so they can deliver to the correct location and provide accurate shipping rates especialy at the Purchase Quotes stage.

Also, this would also automatically carry over to Goods Receipts when a Purchase Order gets delivered.

Moreover, it would also be helpful if Manager kept an optional address field for each location. This address will apear on Purchase Quotes and Purchase Orders as the Delivery Address field

Same is needed on Sales side too.

Would be beneficial if address is added to Divisions too.

You mean selling Division address on Sales documents, right?

Yes. Also on Purchase side RFQs, Orders.
If included in Merge Tags into footers it would be better this way users can show it on documents only if they want.

It is a good idea, but this makes me think that for Divisions, they apply on line item level, which is very useful when Divisions are say revenue streams and not physical branches.

However, for the Branch address to be printed on a Sales Invoice, the Division field must be set for the entire document.

Personally, I see no harm in having two Division fields: (1) in the header, (2) in the lines. The behavior should be that the Lines > Division field should only be editable if the main Division field is (blank) otherwise, the lines should copy the main field – similar to how Customer/Supplier fields work on a Receipt/Payment.

But I’m not sure how the developer would feel about this :thinking:

Yes i thought about that and if more divisions are selected in a single invoice, then currently in footers they are separated by a comma. Anyway, i don’t think that’ll be an issue as if someone wants to show divisional address on an invoice, they most probably would be using a single Division across all lines.

@lubos even mentioned that changes are coming to Forms in which you will be able to define Tax code, Division, Project and Discount on document level if you want.

I wish the Inventory Location could be specified at the line level. This would allow us to create a single invoice for goods from multiple locations without needing to transfer them to one location first.
