Purchase Orders - Field Options

Posted on by 145

Hello,

I am trying to find out how I would make changes to the template for a purchase order.

We currently have fields (ex. We have one labeled as "Confirm With") which are not being used. When I go to enter a purchase order, I don't seem to be able to find the place where I would enter this information.

Assuming I do find the answer to my first question... how would I then search for it in GP?

As a manufacturing company, we have requisition #s/sales order #s which we would like to relate to certain purchase orders. I would like to modify the "Confirm With" field to allow me to enter these sales order numbers, and then be able to search within GP for all the purchase orders related to that #.

Thank you very much!

Regards,

Omar.G

    Those are a couple of complex questions.  POs can be generated directly from sales orders, providing a tight link between the two.  Frank has identified where to enter the data in his post so I won't duplicate that.  As for searching, I would use either SmartLists or the Spy Glass icon in the lookup window to provide a search by any field.

    You might want to get copies of our Understanding SOP and Understanding POP as well as the Power User manuals (for the lookups).  These are available on our web site (  www.accoladepublications.com )

    In the PO, click on the blue arrow to the right of the Vendor ID.  That opens the window where you can enter a value into the Confirm with field.  Unfortunately, that's not a user defined field so you would have to modify that window to change the label.

    To search for it in GP, run a PO SmartList, first adding the 'Confirm With' field to the report.

    Hope this helps,
