The Procurement Location (PLOC) table is used to define the shipping and billing address for each procurement location. Each address is assigned a Location Code, which is used by clients to quickly default shipping and billing information in Advantage when entering Procurement transactions. A Department Code and Contact Name can also be specified on this table.
The Location Type field specifies the type of location. Various tables and transactions use this field to provide filtered lists and check validation. For example, on the Warehouse table only locations with a Location Type of Warehouse can be selected from the Warehouse Location pick list. On the Receiver (RC) transaction only locations with a Location Type of Shipping can be selected from the Receiving Location pick list. On the Header of Solicitation (SO) transactions, only locations with a Location Type of Bid Receiving can be selected from the Bid Receiving Location pick list. In the Final Destination Location field on the Procurement User table, only locations with a Location Type of Final Destination can be selected.
