We need a complete solution in Financial Controls PO module to replace the need for users logging into Vista. When we need to extend a PO, we add new item (for example, we need to add a few more months on a rental PO). Once a PO is processed in FC, it becomes uneditable. In Vista PM Purchase Orders, we still have the ability to enter new Items and interface. We also rely heavily on this ability if a PO was processed to the wrong phase code. Instead of creating a whole new PO, we adjust the PO with the - amt of the wrong code and re-enter the proper code. The amounts are the same so do not need to hassle with regenerating new POs to the Vendor. Plus, if we DID create a new PO, how does one CANCEL that PO if the PO is now uneditable in FC?

We are heading into 3 years since this request has been made. Forcing us to enter changes in Vista under PM Purchase Orders skips the whole approval process and also forces us to keep 2 versions of our POs maintained (one is SSRS in HFF and one is Crystal Reports in Vista). This is completely unsustainable and we desperately need a solution.
If it cannot be changed in Vista, then at the LEAST, please update HFF data when a PO is updated in Vista so the 2 systems are sync'd. We cannot have the POs different across them. This will at least let us still print in HFF.
We do the same thing with rental PO's because the rental companies generally use the initial PO # for each recurring month. There are other instances where adding a line item to a processed PO is also needed. I'm not sure why PO Pending Purchase Orders/keystyle are unable to add an item after processing, but PM Purchase Orders can. It would be great if they had the same capabilities.
