Symptoms

Need the ability to manually populate purchase order detail fields (P4310) that have been deselected to not populate from PO Header to PO Detail within P40HDR|W40HDRA - Header Columns to Detail Table.

Deselecting data items in P40HDR to not populate the fields from the header to the detail, should allow manual entry of these fields in PO detail F4310 to be different from the PO header F4301. In fact, the PO Header information in F4301 still populates the PO Detail F4310 when data items/fields are deselected to not populate the PO detail. If a field has been manually updated in P4310, the P4310 overwrites what has been manually added in PO Detail.

The requested fields to be manually populated in PO Detail are:

PHVR02 - Reference 2
PHINMG - Print Message
PHANCR - Carrier Number
PHAVCH - Code - Evaluated Receipt Settlement
PHCRMD - Send Method
PHFRTH - Freight Handling Code

Steps to recreate:

1.   Ensure processing option 10 - Header to Detail in the Defaults tab is blank in the P4310.
2.   Either add a new PO or select an existing PO (P4310) with the status below Processing Option #6 on the Display tab (detail line protection) in P4310.
3.   From the PO Header (P4310), select Row > Header > Additional Information and populate anything in the Reference field (PHVR02) and save the change.
4.   Click on Row > Header Revisions.
5.   Go to Form > Header to Detail > Define.
6.   Ensure that VR02 (for example) does not contain a 1 in Define Header Columns to Detail Table. Click save.
7.   Click the green check mark to proceed to the PO Detail and add a PO Line (P4310).
8.   Click on line 2.000 in the grid.
9.   Scroll over to the right to locate the Reference field (VR02) and notice that the header information now exists in the PO Detail.
10. If using an existing purchase order, blank out VoL UOM for example and the Reference (PHVR02) field will populate.
