Correct process for ordering parts

So I am following the Guide "Make To Stock" and have performed the steps several times.  In all the different reports I never see anything about how to actually get a report with the supplier's part number on it, so they would know what to send me.  For example, the Purchase Order should be a document that would be given to a supplier and no where does it say the supplier part number that i've specified in the Item box.

Am I doing something wrong?  The only thing I can think of is that ERPNext wants me to use the Supplier's part number as the Item Code, which I don't really understand since that is a number I should be able to define.

Thanks!

Do you mean the print? Or you want a tabulated report with the supplier part number?

If the supplier part number is present in the Item table and is not set as "Print Hide" then it should be printed.

There is no report right now, pls add a request with the column names to https://github.com/frappe/erpnext/issues

I don't know what you mean by "print", I have only been looking at the reports, for a BOM and/or a Purchase Order.  Is there any report that is supposed to show the supplier part number associated with an item?  I downloaded some of my Tables and could not find a "Print Hide" column anywhere.

I don't know what you mean by "print",

It means Print Format of the Purchase Order. You can make Supplier Item Code visible by unchecking Print Hide for this field from Customize Form. Check following link for help in using Customize Form.

I have only been looking at the reports, for a BOM and/or a Purchase Order. Is there any report that is supposed to show the supplier part number associated with an item?

No Standard report, but you can make custom report based on Item master, with Supplier Item Code column selected in it. Also report on Purchase Order will give required data.

Report builder option is available on the list view page of documents.
I downloaded some of my Tables and could not find a "Print Hide" column anywhere.
