Add Outside Processing Requisition Lines to Open Purchase Orders

You can now add new approved outside processing requisition lines to existing open purchase orders for outside processing, eliminating the need to create separate purchase orders. In update 24D, requisition lines associated with outside processing items couldn't be added to existing open purchase orders for outside processing. In this update, that restriction has been lifted.

These screenshots illustrate the feature.
