To print the primary vendor's item number on a purchase

The primary vendor's item number is set to print automatically when you print a purchase. To ensure the primary vendor's item numbers print on a purchase, the following conditions must exist:

A primary vendor must be assigned to the item. Primary Vendors are assigned to individual items using the Primary Vendor for Reorders field in the Buying Details view of the Item Information window.

The primary supplier's item number must be assigned to the item. This number is entered in the Vendor Item Number field in the Buying Details view of the Item Information window.

An item must be recorded on an Item purchase layout.

The primary vendor for the item must be entered in the Vendor field of the Purchases window; that is, the purchase must be made from the primary supplier.

If these conditions don't exist, no item numbers will be printed on the purchase.
