Punchout and enhancedPOSR Feature

    We are trying to set up punchout for a vendor who performs desktop delivery.  As part of the cXML they receive the have requested that the requesters' name be part of the data in with the PO.  This will help them to ensure packages are delivered correctly. We anticipate sending over 3 cXML files a day to the vendor that contains multiple PO's.   We were trying to use the POSR setting to pass the requester, requesting location and requisition number.  After much trial and error it has been stated the POSR information is only in the initial handshake and does not pass a part of the actual PO cXML file at the PO level.    We then tried to go through and use User Defined Variables to try and pass the Requester Name over with PO cXML.  We have not been able to do that and have been told this is not supported.  

    Has anyone had any success getting the requester name or at least ID to pass over into the cXML or even the EDI file if we decide to move to Punchout with the use of EDI. 

    we are on edi version 

     100005_12

    RQC version 

    10.00.06.39.112


    Any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

      If you go the EDI route you would have to modify PO120 to place the information in the POEDI file. You would then have to modify laws_out_91 or laws_out_91_ghx if you are using GHX to place the information into the correct segement.

        Thank you for the reply - I will try that when we do the EDI validations.   Are you familiar with the POSR setting and how that works in teh cXML format?
