PO Suggestions suggesting incorrect Supplier

Hello All,

I am sure someone has posted or ran into this before but I am looking for some tips on what to investigate for PO suggestions suggesting the wrong supplier. I know we can manually change the supplier on the PO suggestion but we want MRP to be working correctly and can’t seem to explain this one.

So far I have checked the Part > Site tab, Supplier Price Lists, Subcontract Operations, and previous PO’s. I am getting suggestions on a handful of parts for a supplier that seems to have no connection to those parts at all. I even changed the supplier on one of the parts and regenerated MRP but it still have the wrong supplier from before.

One part did have that supplier on the Site tab previously but I removed it, saved, and regenerated MRP completely but it still chooses that supplier.

Where else can I look to try to find the connection? I can’t find anything else so far.

Thank you in advance!

If the suggestions are coming from a Job, you can check the Job. If I remember correctly, you can also check the approved section of the part. Maybe there is a supplier approved for a specific Customer?

Is it Buy For/Purchase direct and is the supplier specified on the sales order or job?

Do you have a Supplier Price List on that part for a different Supplier?

I found it buried in a job material from a job that was created before we removed the supplier. This seems to be the fix.

Thank you!
