Contains an additional part of the name of the company at the address that you want the items in the purchase order to 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:

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 name in Company Information, the program automatically retrieves the name from there when you fill in the No. field. The field is blank if Company Information does not contain a ship-to name.

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, the field contains the name of the customer the items will be shipped to.

The program automatically retrieves the ship-to name from the Customer table when you fill in the Sell-to Customer No. field.

You can change the name either by entering a different one or by entering the customer's ship-to code that stands for the ship-to address you want.
