Purchase Order Documents
Purchase Order documents are created from the Order Entry transaction located on the Purchasing menu. This transaction is used for generating a document that will be used for purchasing goods from a vendor. A "PO Purchase Orders" document may link directly with the following documents: PS Customer Orders and PO Inventory Receipts.
Document Search Options
A number of Search Options are offered for PO Purchase Orders documents. These include filtering the documents based on item, vendor, status, and amount. By checking the "open" check box, only purchase orders documents that have not been "closed" will be included for selection in the grid. Users can also specify one or more branches (when applicable) and the standard selection criteria that includes date ranges, user ID, reference ID, and notes. Search and selection criteria may usually be used in combination and most fields support the use of the % wildcard character.
PO Purchase Order Styles
There are four different styles provided for purchase order documents: PO Standard, PO Allocate, PO No Cost, and PO Margin.
