Items set up in inventory module utilize that specific organization's numbering logic.
While this number is important for many reasons internally, it does not mean anything to a supplier when placing an Ad Hoc noninventory order as they require order to be placed under their own Cat#/Item ID.
Why can't the PO screen show the Vendor Item number to the buyer when placing the order making it easier to place the orer? The same goes for receiving. As it is, the receiving person has to try and match a suppliers packing slip (which contains their cat #) to a receiver line base on descrpiption alone in MAS since the vendor item number does not carry over to MAS receipt.
