    Josh,

    In NAV, the ability to restore a Purchase Archived Order is unavailable. I have taught my customers to print the Archive version to paper and manually reenter it and deleting the old Purchase Order that is incorrect (as long as no posted entries exist).

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks,

    Steve

    Hi, I personally do not recommend using the same number, problems may occur if the last order had split shipments, or split invoicing.

    According to my tests, the urchase Archive Order cannot be copied in Copy Document feature, so this may require a bit of customization. So maybe it's better to use Configuration Package.

    Hope this will help.

    Thanks.

    Hi Josh,

    If we do a Copy Document and create a similar document, won't the ledger entries create a double entry of the same transactions.

    Hi Josh,

    Unfortunately we don;t have such option, you have to create the same document manually as per the last document.

    Thanks

    If you’re looking for a restore button - like you have with archived sales orders - you won’t locate one. NAV misses that feature. You will need a modification to have that. Try out another method like copy document. If you want the same PO number allow manual numbers and type it in.
