How are purchase orders raised on a location's own supplier account?
The PO raises on the location's own account. Rebates land where they're earned. At order time, a purchase order raises with the supplier by PromoStandards on the buyer's own account number. Terms, rebates and buying-group attribution never move. SanMar live today, S&S rolling out, hard goods suppliers next. A location enters its account numbers before it sees wholesale pricing.
