Why does AGR create multiple orders for the same vendor?
Why does AGR create multiple orders for the same vendor?

AGR splits an order calculated for multiple items from the same vendor, in cases when the items have different registered lead times.

Updated over a year ago

When items from the same primary vendor have different lead times registered in AGR, AGR understands that orders placed on the same date could have different delivery dates.

The Split Orders for Multiple Delivery Dates setting determines whether AGR should split the items into multiple orders by their respective delivery dates. By default, this is turned on. You can turn it off in Order settings.

Turning it off tells AGR that all items are expected to be delivered on the same date, using the longest lead time of the items in the order. AGR puts all items that are ordered from the same vendor together in a single combined order.

You might also want to consider validating the registered lead times for your items. If AGR imports both vendor-level and item-level lead times from your ERP, the vendor-level lead time is used as the default lead time for all items ordered from the vendor. Any existing item-level lead times will override the vendor-level lead time.

If you would like items to follow the vendor lead time, be sure to remove any registered item lead times for these items.
