I checked the CP number, it is not even sorted by that. Any other thoughts/ideas ? There has to be some logic . By the way my macola version is ES 9.5.100.

Thank you for your response. Your logic is correct, but I'm only ordering for one vendor at a time. SO all items have same primary vendor, I select item A, Item B and Item C. But when I process it, it goes random eg: it will show Item A, Item C and Item B with no clear logic. All of them have...

Thank you for your response. As far as Customer blanket order is concerned its asking me to choose the customer, which I think will be more work since one part goes to multiple customer. As far as Master scheduled items are concerned, after you suggested I tried entering the orders in enter...
