Troubleshooting
Problem
A purchase order must be in a status of Approved (APPR) or In Progress (INPRG) before it can be revised.
Symptom
If the PO has been received when revising, the vendor field becomes read only.
If the PO has not been received when revising, the vendor field is then editable.
Cause
When revising a PO that has receipt's COMP, the vendor cannot be changed and should not be changed.
Only when the receipts against the PO are NONE will Maximo allow you to change the Vendor on the PO,
Environment
Since 7.5.0.X there was a new feature that you can revise Purchase Order's,
Bring up a Purchase Order in APPR or INPGR Status
Select Action Menu > Revise PO
You revise purchase orders when you want to change information, such as the quantity or the vendor, on a purchase order.
