When a purchasing flow starts from a Purchase Requisition, the default remote warehouse added as the Destination Warehouse in the requisition line will be added to purchase order line’s Destination Warehouse when the requisition is converted to a purchase order in below both conversion flows:

  1. Purchase Requestion to Purchase Order
  2. Purchase Requisition to Request to Purchase Order
