Who is Buyer

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I want to add buyer information like buyer no and name of buyer in my Zreport.

The report is used to identify POs that we have received the goods for, but no invoice.The Zreport currently outputs the individual who is performs the GR. Typically this is not the individual who would be contacting the vendor to resolve the issue. The Resolution should be completed by the buyer.

In this case who is the Buyer.

Thanks,

Subbu.
