Rules for initializing item or service data from the catalog or contract catalog link
Once an item or service has been selected in a purchase line, certain data relating to the catalog or Contract catalog link is transferred to this line. In some contexts, the application may not be able to return data automatically.

Data from the catalog or contract catalog:

- If the item or service has several contract catalog links, no data is returned. The is not initialized.
This data can also be reinitialized later on using the Search for item purchase conditions and Search for specific conditions actions available from the Item or Service infozone.

Allocations and costs tab
The information is taken from the original , but can still be changed.
See Purchase request [Purchase lines] [Allocations & costs].
Address tab
This tab can be seen on a purchase order with delivery distributed according to the order line. It indicates the designated delivery address of the order line.
The system will automatically determine the delivery address based on the information of the entity entered on the order line, determining the delivery distribution, and therefore the "Selected delivery point".
Only addresses of the Main type are selected by the system as eligible for the delivery of orders.
If the system does not find an address eligible for delivery on the entity allowing the breakdown ("Grouped by"), it will then browse through the entity's parent elements in order to determine whether one of these entities has a valid address and select it as the "Selected delivery point":
- For Customer: the system will search for an address from the parent customer
- For an Item of equipment, the system scans the equipment tree to determine if an eligible address (the first one found) is present. In case of multiple parents, the system takes the first one found.
- For a Management, the system does not have a parent entity to search for as it is based only on the addresses of the associated organization.
- For a Warehouse, the system will search for an address in the warehouse organization if necessary.
If no main address is found for the breakdown entity of an order line, the system will take the order's default delivery address and will indicate the order code in the selected delivery point.
- Issue of: The code of the specified entity with a valid delivery address for the order line.
While the code used is that of the entity on which the distribution is made, the entity code may differ from the one concerned,
- Regarding: The determining entity of the order line that allows the order line to be split between an address.
