Purchase order generation rules are not followed by RMS Manager

When I generate a purchase order according to reorder information and to order from the supplier with the lowest cost, Manager does not always order from the supplier with the lowest cost. I can verify this by clicking through the ILC on the purchase order, clicking the supplier tab and the cost info on the two suppliers shows that the cheapest one is not the one that the PO is generated for.



Any idea what is going on and how to fix it?



Thanks!

I can verify that. I posted it long ago and no one else responded. That IS the way we like to order. I update two main vendor prices regularly and want RMS to order from the lowest price. I have not been able to discern any specific condition that causes it to fail to order from the lowest price on many items. This is supposed to be a feature, yet it does not work. It forces me to delete the higher priced vendor on many items, therefore eliminating the advantage of being able to fill backorders from a second vendor.

This again goes to what was pointed out the other day, re: selective fixes. MS make a big deal out of the WE ARE LISTENING on the RMS websites, but are they really?
