In the MRP (Material Requirements Planning) settings, ensure that the planned purchase orders are set to consolidate by vendor. This should ideally combine all items for the same vendor into one purchase order. If this is not happening, you may need to check your settings or look for any customizations that might be affecting this behavior. 2. If the planned purchase orders are still being created as separate orders for each item, you could consider using a SuiteScript to consolidate these orders. This script would look at the vendor and item details on each planned order and combine those with the same vendor into one purchase order. 3. Another approach discussed in the threads is to create a "fake" vendor and assign it as the default for all your items. Then, run a map/reduce script every 15 minutes that looks at the zip code/item and updates the vendor on the PO appropriately. Remember, these are just suggestions based on previous conversations and may not work perfectly in your specific scenario. You may need to adjust or customize these steps to fit your exact requirements.
