Purchasing Region of the Suppliers and Supplier Sites windows

All supplier purchasing values default to new supplier sites you enter.

Note: If you use the Multiple Organizations Support feature, values you enter in the Financials Options window will default to both the supplier and supplier site.

Supplier site values default to purchase orders and purchase requisitions. You can override any purchasing defaults during supplier site entry and purchasing document entry.

Bill-To Location. Location to which a supplier sends the invoice for goods or services. The default for this field is the Financials option you define for Bill-To Location, and the supplier site default is the supplier option you enter.

FOB. Free-on-Board (FOB) code for a supplier. The default is the Financials option you define for FOB, and the supplier site default is the supplier option you enter.

Freight Terms. You negotiate freight terms with a supplier to determine whether you or the supplier pays for freight charges on goods you order from a supplier. The supplier default is the Financials option you define for Freight Terms, and the supplier site default is the supplier option you enter.

Hold Reason. Reason you are preventing approval of purchase orders for a supplier. You enter a value in this field only if you enable the Purchase Order Hold field. The system does not use this information; it is for your reference only.

Purchase Order Hold. You can create a purchase order for the supplier site if you enable this field, but you cannot approve the purchase order. To remove the hold you must manually release the hold.

Ship-To Location. Location where a supplier sends shipments or the invoice for goods/services. The default for this field is the Financials option you define for Ship-To Location, and the supplier site default is the supplier option you enter.

Ship Via. Method of shipment you use with a supplier. The default is the Financials option you define for Ship Via, and the supplier site default is the supplier option you define.

Payment on Receipt Region

Enter information in the following fields if you have installed Purchasing and use the Payment on Receipt feature to create invoices from receipts and purchase orders. These receipts include Advance Shipment Notices (ASNs) and Advance Shipment and Billing Notices (ASBNs) that you receive electronically in Purchasing. See: Advance Shipment Notice (ASN/ASBN).

You can enter values for the Pay On and Alternate Pay Site fields only if this is a pay site. For more information, see: Payment on Receipt.

Pay on.

Alternate Pay Site. If you do not enter an alternate pay site here, then when you create invoices for a supplier site's receipts, the system uses the supplier site on the purchase order as the pay site.

If you want Payables to create invoices for a different active supplier pay site for this supplier when you create invoices from this supplier site's receipts, enter the site name. If this supplier has only one active pay site, you cannot use this field, and Payables will create invoices for the pay site.

Invoice Summary Level. If you left the Alternate Pay Site field blank, enter the level at which you want to consolidate invoices for this supplier site when you submit the Pay on Receipt AutoInvoice Program:

If you enter a value in the Alternate Pay Site field, the system uses the Invoice Summary Level you select for that pay site.
