Issue Purchase Order

Top  Previous  Next

Overview

 

Once a Purchase Order is approved, it can be issued to the vendor for fulfillment.

 

The Purchase Order is issued using a selected PO Report that can be Printed and sent, or Emailed directly to the vendor. The PO Report can optionally be archived to Document Manager (setup required).

 

Optionally, if enabled via Global Settings, Purchase Orders can be pre-billed. A pre-billed Purchase Order will be posted as a zero-dollar Purchase Journal until the vendor invoice has been received.

 

Once Issued, the Purchase Order will be marked Open.
