Purpose

Create and maintain various types of purchase orders.

Overview

Use Purchase Order Maintenance to create standalone purchase orders, and edit, void, and copy existing purchase orders. You can also use it to edit purchase orders generated from other sources (for example, Min-Max Buying Recommendations, DRP, and Drop Ship and Special Order Create).

Changing the Status of Purchase Orders

You can use Purchase Order Maintenance to update a purchase order's status to Ordered for purchase orders generated in Min-Max Buying Recommendations or Drop Ship and Special Order Create.

To change the status for these orders:

  1. Enter the order number in the Purchase Order # field.

  2. Click the Edit button in the ribbon.

  3. Select the Ordered check box.

  4. Click the OK button in the ribbon. After the status is changed to Ordered, the on order inventory is updated and products can be received.

Note Products cannot be received for a purchase order that is finalized and has a status of Approved. You can receive in goods only after a purchase order has been ordered, and the purchase order status is Ordered.

Purchase Order Maintenance has the following tabs:

Note These fields are only available if Show is selected for the VAT Display Level field in Tax Control Maintenance.

Purchase Date

Enter the date the purchase order is created, or click the drop-down arrow to select a date. During new order creation, this defaults to the current date.

Ship Date

Enter the date the products will ship from the supplier, or click the drop-down arrow to select a date. During new order creation, this defaults to the current date.

Required Date

Enter the date by which you want to receive goods in the ship-to location, or click the drop-down arrow to select a date. During new order creation, this defaults to the current date. If you need to inquire on a purchase order status based on the required date, you can select the Expedite check box, and then use Purchase Expedite Inquiry to view order status based on this date.

Delivery Date

Enter the date goods are to be delivered to the ship-to location, or click the drop-down arrow to select a date. This date is used to calculate a promise date during order entry, and to determine the delivery date for DRP. During new order creation, this defaults to the current date.

If you edit this date for a previously saved purchase order, all line items that have the same delivery date are also changed.

Example You enter 10/11/2020 in this field for a new purchase order and create two line items. Both default to have a delivery date of 10/11/2020. You change the delivery date for the second line item to 10/12/2020, and save the order. You then edit the order and change the date in this field to 10/13/2020. When you save the order, the delivery date for the first line item is also changed to 10/13/2020, but the delivery date for the second line item is not changed.

Delivery Time

Enter the time of day that goods are to be delivered to the ship-to location, and click the Lookup button to select AM or PM.

Final Change Date

Enter the date of the last change that can be made to this purchase order, or click the drop-down arrow to select a date. You should not change an order after this date, unless you change this date. During new order creation, this defaults to the current date. A warning message appears when you change a purchase order after this date if the Warn If the Final Change Date Is Prior to Updated Date check box in Purchasing Control Maintenance is selected.

The date in this field is also used for DRP. If you are using DRP, there is functionality that can assist in determining if there will be excess inventory during a given time period, e.g. the month of October. For example, circumstances may have changed: orders cancelled, forecasts changed, etc. If there is excess inventory in a given time period, the software can then, as part of its DRP algorithms and logic, determine if there are purchase orders that can be changed; perhaps production or shipment/delivery dates can be pushed out. It will exclude purchase orders for which the date entered in the Final Change Date field has passed. This could indicate that production is already done, the order is already on a container being shipped, etc. If this is the case, the software will not alert a user to review the purchase order and change it.

Finalized

Select this check box to indicate that the purchase order is finalized. This check box is selected by default when you create a new purchase order. A finalized purchase order is considered to be a purchase order requisition, and the purchase order status is Approved. However, you cannot receive in goods when the purchase order is in this status. You must complete the purchase order transaction by ordering the purchase order before you can receive goods for the purchase order.

Ordered

Select this check box to order a purchase order that has not yet been ordered. This check box is only enabled when you edit a purchase order that was previously marked as finalized and saved. Products cannot be received until a purchase order is marked as ordered.

If you create a new purchase order and approval is not required, a Question dialog box appears after you click OK, which asks if you would like to order the purchase order. If you click Yes in this dialog box, the purchase order is ordered and the Ordered check box is selected automatically. When a purchase order is ordered, the on order inventory is increased for the products on the purchase order.
