Hi All, have posted this on the community forum but thought i would post in here as well in case anyone has any ideas or experience in the past
We have a prospect that has two companies, one base in ROI and one based the UK. The 2nd ROI company does not hold any stock and all sales order stock is supplied by the primary UK company.
We’ve worked through using intercompany module and believe it would work for them to a degree but ideally we would like the Intercompany Sales Order in the UK company to be dispatched to the customer address for the ROI company.
If we select to raise the intercompany PO from the ROI company to the UK company as a drop ship PO, we cannot seem to generate the intercompany SO from the “Generate Intercompany Sales Orders” process within the UK company.
This means the ROI company would have to theoretically “Receipt” the stock to their ROI warehouse to immediately despatch their customer sales order. This adds another level of admin the customer would like to avoid as they would like the paperwork from the UK company to have to delivery address of the ROI company customer.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Matthew - to clarify your request the following questions:
Please confirm that I understand the client's business process ... the intercompany module will not necessarily help you create intercompany-documents... there are additional configuration steps required.
1. I assume the UK Co has all the stock and the ROI Co holds no stock
- I assume the ROI Co places a Purchase Order on the internal group UK Co to deliver stuff to a customer and activate the dropship on the line in the PO document?
- Or .. does the UK Co first deliver to the ROI Co for further distribution to the customer?
2. You have extended both companies as Vendor and Customer?
3. You have set up all your stock item codes in the UK Co with a default warehouse in the inventory item record- being the warehouse for the UK co
4. Do you create the PO for the ROI Co and you have added the Sales Order on the line of the PO?
5. I assume your ROI customer and inventory profiles/master data are accurate and correct?
Once we receive confirmation of the above then we could possibly assist.
