Process Purchase Orders

Each tab on this Module step provides a function to assist in the processing of a purchase order. If you have created purchase orders for non-inventory items only, and used the auto receive feature, then those purchase orders will not show in the drop down list box for purchase orders to be processed. You may go directly to Add/Edit Invoices for PO Items Received to process you non-inventory purchase orders. 

From this screen you can view the status of a purchase order, confirm receipt of items on a purchase order, and view the receipt history for a purchase order.  Purchase orders cannot be processed until they have been approved. Once they have been approved, they will show in the list of available purchase orders. You can have as many individual receipts as necessary against a purchase order. You cannot process master purchase orders.

Once items on a purchase order have been received, the purchase order can no longer be changed. It can, however, be canceled if only a partial receipt has occurred.

For step-by-step instructions, see the Common Purchase Order Transactions section.
