Does anyone know why unchecking the "Print Purchase Orders" option causes the "PO Form" field to be uneditable in "Maintain Vendor Classes", "Maintain Vendors", and "Enter Purchase Orders"? The result is that I can't print a PO in the "Issue/Print Purchase Orders" screen for a new vendor because I have no way to populate the "PO Form" field.

The PO form defaults from Vendor Classes. If you enter the default form in there you will be able to print from Issue/Print Purchase orders. I am still researching why the selection of the form is disabled; however if you have a form in Vendor Classes it will flow through to the new vendor.

Thanks,

It doesn't make sense why it would be disabled on any screen because, according to the help on the option, it should only disable the print icon on the Enter Purchase Orders screen.

I agree, which is why I wanted to research it. There could be a reason that it was changed (not sure if it has always been like that) and the helpfiles where not updated.  Also I just looked in Maintain Vendor Classes and mine is disabled. Please email me your account number and I will create a no charge case so we can get this in engineering for a code fix.

In the meantime I am assuming that your field is also disabled in Vendor Classes and is also blank. I would recommend that you check Print Purchase Orders, then add the defautl form to Vendor Classes followed by un checking Print Purchse Orders.
