Purchasing for different company codes

Hi Experts,

Running SRM 5.0 and experiencing problems when trying to implement the following scenario:

User A located under one company X/pur.org XX/pur.grp XXX should be able to place a PO through Process PO (Only through PO direct, no SC used) transaction for another company Y.

In attribute BUK of User A both company codes are maintained.

When placing the PO for User A the purchasing org YY and pur.grp YYY of company Y is selected (as well as the location for Y). PO is placed for the "other" org.

The next transaction User A does is to place a PO for his "own" company. The pur.org XX and pur.grp X is defaulted from the org.structure. When trying to select the location through the find search the location of the previous transaction is the only one displayed (location for Y), as if the system thinks the user is in the "other" company code. It is possible to manually enter the BP number of the right location. However all validations against the PO still is made against the wrong company code..and the PO can not be placed

Is this scenario not possible through the Process PO transaction? Are there any settings that can be made to get around this?

Would appreciate any input.
