Advanced Special Order Receiving – PO Generation Options
(Advanced Special Order and Pick/Pack/Ship / Customer Order Management users only)
This option applies to automatic PO creation from POS as well as running report GPO.
Enter the letter of each choice that you want the system to use when generating purchase orders for special order/non-stock items on customer Special Orders/Orders. Enter one or all of them.
C = Use Corresponding Cost
Enter C if you want special order POs to use the item cost which corresponds to the PO’s vendor. If the vendor matches the item’s primary or secondary vendor the system uses the item’s replacement cost. If it matches the item’s manufacturer the system uses the item’s manufacturing cost. If it matches an alternate vendor the system uses that alternate vendor’s cost. Otherwise the cost entered on the customer’s special order/order is used. Assumption being, the salesman placed a quoted vendor cost in the POS Cost field and the purchase order should be created with that cost.
D = Pass Through Descriptor Lines
Enter D if you want the comment lines immediately following the item on the customer’s special order/order to be added to the PO.
P = Move Pattern No
Enter P if you want the pattern number entered in the customer order for a Tally P (Wall paper) item to be added to the PO.
X = If PO# blank, append to an existing vendor/PO# on this order.
