In our product, we have enhanced this feature of Drop shipment. The brief feature list of which is mentioned below:
Pre – requisite setup:
1) On I/C Location master screen, Drop Location check box has been added to mark the location as Drop ship location.
2) With the Drop Location check box checked on the Location master, the Location Address line 4 has been hardcoded with the “DROP” word to mark Location as Drop ship.
Add-on Features:
1) While creating sales orders, users can generate a P/O Purchase order for the items that will be dropped shipped with the provision to select a particular vendor against which the Purchase order will be generated.
2) User can also print the Purchase Order Report from the Order Entry screen once the P/O is posted.
3) At the time of P/O Receipt for the Purchase Order created in step 1, received items will be directly shipped to the customer by an automated shipment generation routine against the O/E sales order generated in step 1.
Hence with the help of Drop shipment add-on; you can generate purchase order from sales order and also create automatic OE Shipment on PO Receipt posting.
Note: This customization is done using Sage 300 SDK, as a result it is easy to deploy and it works with Sage 300 ERP version 2012, v6.0A and V5.6.
