Customer information is synchronized if the field is enabled when the sales order is created or when a change is made to the customer, vendor reference, or the customer requisition number.

You can always change the value in these synchronization fields, but you can only determine whether this value is copied to the other intercompany orders by selecting this parameter. If you have enabled the field on the intercompany sales order, a change to the intercompany sales order is synchronized to the intercompany purchase order. If you have also enabled the field on the intercompany purchase order, it is also synchronized back to the original sales order.

Note Note

If you have enabled the field on both the intercompany purchase order and the intercompany sales order, updates made by one person in one company are overruled by updates made by another person in another company on the same order.


The best practice is to enable the field on the intercompany purchase order, which enables synchronization between the original sales order and the intercompany purchase order and from the intercompany purchase order to the intercompany sales order.
