Job Purchase Direct :: Automatically Checked

I have material that is checked as “Purchase Direct” automatically. I cannot find where that is configured. Thanks!

If the part is non-stock, it’s automatically set to purchase direct.

it is not set to Non-Stock

on both the general and site tabs?

its checked on the site tab.

the logic follows whatever is on the site tab so that you can have different sites treat a material differently. When you change it on the general tab, it asks you if you want have it changed on the sites tab too. If you click no, then they don’t sync. That’s something that can be done by accident pretty easily.

Confirm that you have the site level set as stock also.

Hi Brandon,

I have the same situation on some parts, but both the general and sites are NOT checked as non-stock. Is there something else that could cause this? I just did a test on a top level part number creating a job and the part populated correct and not as “buy direct”. But we had a previous job that it checked the buy direct box. Our jobs are created by Sales Orders and the job wizard function, so nobody is going in and checking that box. Do you have any other ideas of how this could happen?

Are you using quotes on the orders?
