How do you take a sales order and link it to an existing purchase order to be received in at a later date?
*This post is locked for comments
Hi Leslie, no sales orders are displaying for me when I follow your instructions. I'm working with made items, and am hoping to link POs for raw materials to sales orders for made material. Any advice?
Hi MKGP
Here's the steps, I hope it can help. The screenshots are GP2013, the icon pictures are different than other versions.
First, make sure the PO is marked to allow commitments, then select the line item and click the 'link' button identified below:
The link button will open the Sales Commitments for Purchase Order window. Click on the 'Add Sales Doc' button on the bottom of the window. The Sales Assignments for Purchase Order window will open. Select your SOP document, which should be listed in the scrolling window, and then click the 'Select' button. Click the OK button to return to the PO Entry window.
When you get back to the PO window, you'll see a little 'link' icon on the line.
That's it!
Kind regards,
Leslie
The SOP-POP Link function allows this to occur. As well, when you elect from a sales order to purchase you can see a list of existing POs. To be received at a later time than the original ship date of the PO, you will need to add another line on the PO with another required date and then link using the SOP-POP function.
This and other tricks are explained in our Understanding SOP and Understanding POP manuals. Check them out on our web site.
