PO Entry -> Receipt Entry (via Context Menu)

[EpicorNewb (Jacob)]

This probably has an answer right under my nose and I’m overthinking it. But a user requested that I added a context menu on PO Entry that opens up Receipt Entry.

Context Menu Maintenance Not Loading Data

Hi there, I tried to add a context menu maintenance for PO Number so that it can be opened with Receipt Entry. I have added the item to the context menu maintenance and it does show up. When I right click on a PO Number, Open With, Receipt Entry, it will load the receipt entry form but it will be blank and not load the PO Number. Usually it will load the number with it, any ideas? Would I need to use processcaller instead? Thank you! Elvin

A user in this thread mentions a packing slip is also required, but I’m not sure that’s true in this case entirely? You can still load info from the PO #, and then pull the packing slip when done manually.

Looking for suggestions.
