1. Do you get a confirmation from the supplier that the product
has been shipped to the customer?

2. Are you paying the supplier and billing the customer for all of
the work?

IF 1 is Yes, then

1. Do a PO receipt for the work shipped to the customer.

2. Complete the job.

3. Do a Packer for the work shipped from the supplier against the
job.

4. Invoice the customer for the shipment.

5. Process the supplier invoice against the receipt.

6. Close the job.

If 1 is no, work with the supplier to expedite the information.
Otherwise you are waiting for the suppliers invoice to arrive and then
starting the process but in a different sequence.

1. Do a PO receipt for the work shipped to the customer.

2. Process the supplier invoice against the receipt.

3. Complete the job.

4. Do a Packer for the work shipped from the supplier against the
job.

5. Invoice the customer for the shipment.

6. Close the job.

The two above processes would be the proper business process.

Subject: [Vantage] E9: Best way to: Pick material, send material to
vendor, vendor drop ships to customer

We have a scenario where we receive an order from the customer and the
product they want is made at a vendor but we pick the material and send
the material to the vendor along with a PO for their work. When the
vendor finishes the product, the vendor will drop ship it to our
customer.

We started down the path of:
Create sales order
Create job link to sales order

Job contain material needed on BOM and has two operations. One operation
to pick and cut the material to size and the other one is a subcontract
operation where we send the materials to the vendor.

Where we get stuck is what we need to do once the vendor has drop
shipped it to our customer.

We thought we would record a drop ship entry but it looks like this is
only for Buy-to-order parts that are tied to a sales order.

Is there a better way to handle this type of order than what I listed
above?

Are there recommendation on how we "button" up transactions in Epicor 9
once the vendor drop ships?

Thanks in advance!
