Thanks for the bug report @JZafarr. This probably has to do with the fact that suppliers and depots are now expected to have an organization associated with them. The fix would be to create and assign an organization to all of your supplier and depot locations before creating a PO. You will probably need to delete the PO you just created. Let me know f you're having trouble with that (i.e. the delete option might only be available from the page where you're seeing this error).

Lastly, I'll keep this ticket open to remind me to add null safety for this particular property access.

@jmiranda I accidentally induced this error today, see: https://www.loom.com/share/c066b82b346f4ee394fa2331f09619a2?sid=bfcba165-f2af-49ec-b6eb-64aedabbe662

@JZafarr Does look like what you experienced?

[JZafarr]

@jmiranda Thanks for the instructions. I will do that and let you know the results. Also now that I have your attention, is there a way to print labels as I cannot find any such setting.

@kkrawczyk123 Could be, i havent defined any suppliers yet but looks similar.

[jmiranda]

is there a way to print labels as I cannot find any such setting.

Can you elaborate what you meant by this? I assume you want to print ZPL labels but want to confirm and get more details on your use case / requirements.

I want to print labels for pallets, boxes and individual items. A label with either a barcode or a QR Code with item description and a count if possible
A 4 x 4 inch label for pallets and boxes and 2 x 1 inch label for individual items. Something like that

Check out the following thread (including the video).

It's been a while since I used this feature so let me know if you encounter any issues.

Printing to two different size labels probably won't be possible at the moment, but it might not be a huge lift if you need that. However, we should create a separate ticket for that work.

FYI, I created a new ticket for the label size issue #4303
