I am trying to create a workflow that creates a sales order but I do not see an option to populate the subsidiary. Is this not possible?

Are you using the multi-sub customers functionality? If not, the sub field defaults. If so, it will default the primary subsidiary. If you need to populate an alternate one and that field isn't there, you could be stuck. At least doing it via Workflow.

multi-sub customers. ok - scripting it is. thanks.

Ok - dumb question here - a workflow that creates a sales order? from what?

From another sales order. The sales team wants to copy orders but not the entire order so need to pick and choose fields.

@pen one are you copying the backordered lines? Just wondering what's the use case

@Luis Negative on that. Company is a logistics company and sometimes clients have multiple shipments and new sales orders are needed.
