Ship-to City Field, Purchase Header Table
Specifies the city name of the address thta the items in the purchase order will be shipped to.
Use this field if you want the items shipped to a different address than your company address.
You use this field in two situations:
Alternative ship-to address
Drop shipment
Alternative Ship-to Address:
If you want items shipped to a different address than your company address, you can fill out the ship-to address fields in the Company Information window.
If you have entered a ship-to address in Company Information, the program automatically retrieves the address from there when you fill in the No. field. The field is blank if Company Information does not contain a ship-to address.
Drop Shipment:
If the items in the purchase order (based on a sales order) will be shipped with a drop shipment directly from the vendor to a customer, this field contains the postal code and city in the address where the items will be shipped.
The program automatically retrieves the code from the Customer table when you fill in the Sell-to Customer No. field.
You can change the city name either by entering different information or by entering the customer's ship-to code that stands for the address you want.
The program will use the code in the Ship-to Country/Region Code field to format the city name on printouts.
