Purchase orders
A purchase order is used to purchase products from the selected vendor. It provides details about the products and services, the vendor from whom the purchase is made, and the terms and conditions of the purchase.
Each item to be purchased is referred to as a line item. Multiple line items can be associated with a purchase order record.
Purchase orders can be created in the following ways:
- Automatically, when a request for quote (RFQ) or a request for proposal (RFP) is awarded. The purchase order record has the same name as the respective RFQ or RFP record.
- Automatically, when an inventory item is reordered.
- From the blanket purchase order, on the Products and Services tab.
- From the menu.
