Save Purchase Order Cost during Document Processing (POP Only)

Purchase Order Documents allow for the pickup of an alternate item for use as the cost price on a POP document – this could be used, for example, as part of a landed cost calculation allocating freight charges to the cost for update to stock.As part of this process the order detail cost is updated to be the new value but is typically reset at the end of the process for subsequent reports or purchase invoice documents. This new feature allows you to save that cost to the order detail.
