Posting Purchase Orders

When you post, you must choose whether you want the order posted as received, invoiced, or both received and invoiced.

The order features are designed to handle both complete and partial receipt of items, and you can invoice either at the time of receipt or afterward. You can invoice orders only if they are received at the same time as the invoicing or if they have already been received.

To Post Purchase Orders:

  1. Browse to the order you want to post.

  2. Fill in the Vendor Invoice No. field.

  3. Click Posting.

  4. Select one of the following:

    Post

    Posts the order without printing a receipt or invoice.

    Post and Print

    Posts the order and prints a receipt (if you receive the order without invoicing it) or an invoice (if you invoice the order).

    After you have chosen whether or not to print the order, a window appears in which you must specify how you want to post it:
