Specifies the name of a contact person for the address where the items in the purchase order should be shipped.

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
  
• Drop shipment
  

Alternative Ship-to Address:

If you want the items shipped to a different address than your company address, you can define the alternative ship-to address under Company Information.

If you have entered the name of a contact person 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 contact name.

Drop Shipment:

If the items in the purchase order (based on a sales order) will be shipped with a drop shipment from the vendor to a customer, the field contains the name of the customer the items should 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 name or by entering a ship-to code for the customer which stands for the ship-to address you want.
