Inbound Shipment Question:
We create bills from the Inbound shipment record, when these bills are created they are not given a reference number. I have created a custom field for the bill reference number, but I am not able to get it to populate.... any ideas?

I looked into this recently and wasn't able to find a solution, unfortunately. We built a separate customization to handle the Inbound Shipment -> Bill process.

@al3xicon Did you script it? Use a workflow? Custom fields?

Yeah it's sort of a complicated mess. User locates all the POs associated to the IBSHP, and selects/bills them via the Bill Purchase Orders screen (this is the only way I've found to generate a Bill w/ Multiple POs on it). User types in a custom field on the Bill the BOL #, and a client script looks up Inbound Shipments with that BOL, and removes any line prepopulated on the Bill that is not one of the lines on the associated Inbound Shipment(s).

Since it's just a normal Bill entry process otherwise, the user can enter the reference number, change the date, next approver, memo, etc.
