Blanket Purchase order

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 25

Hi,

If we want to keep it open how many Purchase Orders we will release from a Blanket Purchase Order how do we do this in Business Central?

For example: If we have an agreement with a vendor to purchase USD 10,000 worth of goods. This could be over a period of time (e.g. 1 year). We would like the Blanket PO to block us if we try to exceed the amount above. On the Blanket PO line this amount will be against a GL account (as opposed to an item).  We may release this amount in one go or we may do it several times within the year in unequal amounts. We don't know how many times we will purchase from the vendor but what we care about is that the total should not exceed 10,000. 

Can someone please shed some light on how this can be accomplished? from what we see, we have to know the quantity beforehand and then consume this quantity (as opposed to the amount). 

Thanks & Regards,

Syed Saqib Hassan

    Qty. and amount could be reversed. So you have a qty. of 10,000 to start and an amount of 1. You can they control it that way.

    The amount of orders from a blanket PO is governed by the above. No setting to state you must consume X amount over Y orders.
