Creating purchase orders for quotation lines

After you award quotation lines to a vendor, you can create a purchase order for that vendor for those line items.

Before you begin

Requests for Quotations must be either in SENT (Sent to the Vendor) status or in COMP (Completed) status. You can then award quotation lines and create a purchase order.

  2. Click the Quotations tab.
  3. Perform the following steps for each vendor for whom you want to create a purchase order:
    1. On the Vendor sub tab, click View Details next to the vendor name.
    2. Optional: Award quotation lines to the selected vendor. Each line you award must have a unit cost.
    3. Click Create PO.
    4. Specify a purchase order number, or click Autonumber.
    5. Optional: Type a description.
    6. Click OK.
