Multi PO's from one sales order
Surely we cannot be the only ones that will raise a sales order which requires PO.s creating from more than one supplier. Our old system would back to back a sales order to as many PO's needed depending on the different suppliers linked to each product. The fact this software does not have this is alarming. The fix must be so simple and the end result an absolute game changer for everyone. It basically makes it unusable for any trade counter no matter the industry.

Although far from a perfect solution, when i have to do this i will click “create purchase order” in the sales order and then delete anything off the new PO so that it's left with everything from one supplier. Then go back to the sales order, make another new purchase order and do the same again. I typically only have 2-3 suppliers on one order though so perhaps much time consuming if you have loads of suppliers.
@Geometry Dash You’re right—many businesses need to split one sales order into multiple POs for different suppliers. If the system doesn’t support this natively, it’s a significant limitation, especially for trade environments. You may need a workaround (like splitting the sales order manually) or request this as a feature, as it’s a common and essential workflow.
