You can select only one standard Purchase Vintage among all variants of an item, which is considered the Default Purchase Variant.

When selecting an item in Purchase, the variant with the specified standard Purchase Vintage is automatically added to the Variant Code field.

  1. Select the Search icon , enter Items, and then choose the related link.
  2. Select the required No. to open the Item Card.
  3. On the action bar, go to Related > Item > Variants to open the Item Variants page.
  4. Select the Default Purchase Variant check-box to indicate the item you want as the Default Purchase Variant.


When the Get Recurring Purchase Lines function is executed, the default Purchase Variant is considered if the Variant Code is empty on the recurring purchase line.


When you create Purchase Orders from the Blanket Order, no item variant is defined on the blanket order. Thus, if there is a standard Purchase Item Variant, it is included on the Purchase Order.
