The Purchase Order Window

The Purchase Order Window

The Purchase Order Window is used to enter or update Purchase Orders to be sent, to record payments made to suppliers, and to record Stock Received.

The interface is tabbed and provides a tab for Viewing/modifying the order and payments, a tab to receive delivery of stock (while the order is still open) and an individual tab for each day that deliveries have been received for this order (dynamically added as you receive shipments).

You can add items to a purchase order by drag-dropping them from the Items Window or by using a barcode or magstrip scanner. See Creating a New Purchase Order, Editing, and Sending a Purchase Order for more information.

You record payments to suppliers by using the right-click menu on the Payments list.

The Receive Tab is used to mark items received (and bring them into inventory).

You can also drag-drop items into this tab, or simply edit the quantity received. You can also scan received items into this tab. See Receiving Items from Purchase Orders for more information.
