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

Joan,
    How are you creating M/O's??? If you create mfg order from a customer
order it populates these fields.. I have done this with a program.... Has
not caused a problem... So Far   Also I believe if you update the MBADrep
file with the M/O you have to cancel the M/O before you can cancel the order
line item... Have not tested that lately...
