Identifying Procurement Buyers for Buy Lines

You can assign a procurement buyer to any buy line for any branch or territory in the company. If a procurement buyer is not assigned to a buy line, you can display the sales orders with procured items from the buy line in the Procurement Confirmation Queue using the regular buyer for the buy line.

As with other program settings, the system looks to the branch level to apply the setting. You can identify a procurement buyer for a branch or a territory.

To associate a procurement buyer with a buy line:

  1. From the Purchase > Maintenance menu, select Buy Line Maintenance to display the Buy Line Maintenance window.

  2. Display the buy line to which you want to assign a procurement buyer.

  3. From the Information menu, select Additional Data to display the additional data parameters.

  4. From the File menu, select ToggleHierarchy to specify a branch or territory.

  5. Enter the branch number in the dialog box.

  6. In the Procurement Buyer field, enter the user ID you want.

  7. Save your changes and exit the window.
