RE: Link multiple MO's to a CO LI Rel

Pete,

The first MO is created from the CO line item; the second MO (sample / first
article) is created manually and has no "link" to the CO line item. We do
enter the CO information in the "Job Number" text field, but that field
cannot be used to link to the CO (not easily, anyway).

Joan,
    I created a CO with 2 line items on it... ... Then went to IM order
entry.. I said to create mo from customer order.. Press enter.... prompted
me for both line items and created 2 mo's... The itmsq fld is the Com line
item seq.. from the (mbadrep/mbcdrep) How would you get 2 mo's for the same
Cust order/line item?????   You get an error
( E AM-3311 MFG ORDER ALREADY RELEASED FOR THIS ITEM) if you try to crreate
another MO for the same line items...
