Symptoms

FOB (Freight On Board) terms are designated at the Purchasing Options by SETID and also at the Vendor. If the two terms are different then the Vendor FOB terms should be designated on the Purchase Order.


Steps to reproduce the issue:

1. Define the freight terms on the PO BU options - Freight Options link. Navigation: Setup Financials/Supply Chain > Business Unit Related > Purchasing > Purchasing Options
2. Define the Vendor freight terms at location tab different than Purchasing Options. Navigation: Suppliers > Supplier Information > Add/Update  > Add/Update Supplier
3. Create a Requisition. Navigation: Purchasing > Requisitions > Add/Update Requisitions
4. On the Requisition Selection page make sure you do not select DEFINE PO
5. Create Purchase Order copying from Requisition.  Navigation: Purchasing > Purchase Orders > Add/Update POs
6. Check the PO schedule - freight tab.
