11. Click on the magnifying glass at the end of the Preferred Supplier field.
12. The search originally opens on the General Tab. We will come back to that, but for now we need the Groupings Tab.
13. Click on the Groupings Tab.
14. Click the drop-down arrow next to Group and choose UK Suppliers.
15. Go back to the General Tab.
16. If you want to see all the suppliers, click the Search button and all will populate.
Make sure that you've first selected the UK Supplier Group in the General Tab.
17. Scroll down until you find the Supplier.
18. Click OK in the header.
19. If you don't want to have to scroll to find the name, simply type the name, or any part of the name, in the search field surrounded by asterisks and click Search.
20. Double click on the line to populate the results in the Preferred Supplier field.
21. Click SAVE in the header.
If this is a repairable part, you can repeat the process for the Preferred Repair field.
Once the Preferred Supplier is set for the Stock Record, the requisition will generate with that supplier for your site. This is one way to ensure that the UK Suppliers are automatically chosen for UK Sites.
