Editing Purchase Orders

Purchase Orders (PO) should be used for all adding of inventory items (rather than adding stock) for proper inventory control. 



== Link Status Overview ==
Inventory items placed on a service or install order have a link status that will tell you the inventory allocation status of the item.
<br>[[File:LinkStatusOptions.png]]
<br>'''Has JIT Items''' - There is no stock available in the default warehouse for that item. May need to check other warehouses to see if any available or place a purchase order.
<br>'''Allocated''' - There is stock available but you will need choose the location you want to reserve the stock from or choose the correct serial number if serialized.
<br>'''Reserved''' - Stock has been reserved for the item
<br>'''Has Ordered Items''' - The item is on a purchase order
<br>'''Delivered''' - Stock has been depleted from your SME warehouses for that item. When you close an order, reserved item will move to delivered. Allocated items can move to Delivered as well if you have '''Auto Deliver on Allocated''' checked in '''Setup''' > '''Company''' >''' Order'''.

<br>You can see the Link Status for your items on the '''Materials''' tab with '''Flat View''' checked (image above), in the '''Inventory Allocation''' window (actions > Inventory Allocation) and also in the '''Create PO for Selected Items''' window.

<br>Review the [[Material Allocation]] section for more information about allocating stock.


== Order Item Tab - Color Coding Material ==
On the Order Items tab the inventory items will have colors associated with their Link Status
<br>'''Yellow Items'''
<br>- Has JIT items 
<br>'''Gray Items'''
<br>- Allocated 
<br>'''White Items'''
<br>- Reserved Items
<br>- Has Ordered Items - Items that are on a Purchase Order
<br>[[File:MaterialLinkStatusColors.png]]

== Create PO for Selected Items ==
[[File:ActionsCreatePOForSelectedItems.png]]
<br>In a service or install order, click '''Actions''' > '''Create PO for Selected Items''' and you will be able to view all the inventory items on the order, choose the vendor, choose the ship to location, and choose the items you want to place on PO.

<br>The PO Item Selection window will show you all inventory items on the order that have a Link Status of Has JIT Items, Reserved, or Allocated
<br>[[File:POItemSelectionWindow.png]]
<br> Make sure the items you need to place a PO for have a vendor selected and the Shipping location selected. Items that have the same vendor and the same shipping location will be placed on the same PO.
<br>[[File:SavePOItemSelectionWindow.png]]
<br> For the items you want to place on a PO, check in the Include column and click '''Save all changes''' at the bottom.
<br>[[File:CreatePOForSelectedItemsSaveAllChanges.png]]
<br> Once you place the PO, you can go to the '''Purchase Orders''' tab on the service or install order. You will find all the items on PO for that service / install order. Double click on the item to jump to the PO.
<br>[[File:POTab_ReviewPODetails.png]]
<br> When stock is received on the PO, the items will move to the Link Status of Reserved.

== Vendor Items ==
You can setup vendor items for your inventory items that track your various vendors costs.
<br>- Go to an inventory item.
<br>- Click the '''Vendors''' tab.
<br>- Click''' New'''.
<br>- In the Item Vendor window select the''' vendor'''.
<br>- Enter the '''Vendor Part number''' (if needed).
<br>- Enter the '''Item Cost''' - this will populate the cost of the item on the order.
<br>- Enter the '''PO Cost''' - this will populate the cost of the item on the purchase order.
<br>- Enter the '''Retail Price''' - This will populate the material price field on the service / install order.
<br>- Click '''OK'''.
<br>- Click '''New''' again to add another vendor item.
<br>[[File:AddVendorItemToInventory.png]]


<h3>Choosing Vendor item on Service or Install Order</h3>
When adding material to a service order you can select a vendor item on the Item Details tab.
<br>- On service or install order, click Order Items tab
<br>- Click''' New Material''' and select the material
<br>- In Add Items to Order window, select the '''Item Details''' tab
<br>- Locate the '''Vendor Item''' field. Click the drop down field to select a vendor item. Once selected, notice the '''Cost''' and '''Price''' field reflect the vendor item cost and retail price (image below)
<br>[[File:VendorItemSelected.png]]

<br>You can also choose the vendor item you want to use in the '''PO Item Selection''' window (Actions > Create PO for Selected Items)
<br>[[File:VendorItemOnCreatePOForSelectedItems.png]]

== Purchase Order tab on Service or Install Order ==
Click the '''Purchase Order''' tab to see all the items on the service order that are on purchase orders. You can see the PO number, the PO status, if the item is received and when it was received, what location is the item getting received into, the PO status, the date the PO was created and more.

<br>Double click on an item on the tab to jump to the PO the item is on.
<br>[[File:PurchaseOrderTabOnORder.png]]

== Create PO for JIT Only Items ==
Another PO creation option from the service order is Actions > Create PO for JIT-Only Items. This will put all the items with a Link Status of Has JIt Items on a PO.

<br>1. In the service or install order, click''' Actions''' > '''Create PO for JIT-only Items'''.
<br>2. A purchase order is generated for all material with the Item Status of Has Jit Items. The vendor on the purchase order is the default vendor the the material. You can change the vendor on each item as needed.

[[File:CreatePOforJIT.jpg]]

<h3>How POs are broken out</h3>
The items being placed on the PO that have the same vendor selected will go to one PO ''unless'' the items for that vendor have a different default location set on the inventory item. One PO is generated for each location for each vendor. 

<h3>Error Creating Purchase Order</h3> 
If you receive an error after clicking '''Actions''' > '''Create PO for JIT-Only Items''', then you don't have a vendor selected on the material you are placing the PO for.

[[File:ErrorCreatingPurchaseOrder.jpg]]


'''Select the vendor for each material you are placing a PO for:'''
<br>1. In the service or install order, select the Materials tab (or the Order Items tab)
<br>2. Double click on the material you are placing a PO for.
<br>3. Click the Item Details tab and locate the Vendor field. 

[[File:SelectVendor.jpg]]

<br>4. Select the vendor and click OK. Now you can click '''Actions''' > '''Create PO for JIT-Only Items'''.

<h3>Jump to the Purchase Order</h3>
# Click the '''Purchase Order''' tab.
# Double click on the PO you want to open and SME will jump to the PO.
<br>[[File:PurchaseOrdersTab.jpg]]
 
<br>'''*NOTE*'''
<br>-If more than one material you are placing a PO for is going to the same vendor, then the material will be on one purchase order for the vendor. However, if the items for that vendor have a different default location, then each location will get a separate PO for that vendor.

<br>-Once the PO is created, you can change the vendor by going directly to the Purchase Order.
<br>- When you receive the items on the PO, the stock will be automatically reserved for the service or install order the PO was created from.

== Need to Order (Force JIT) ==
If you add material to an order and you don’t want SME to attempt to allocate existing stock to the order, you can check Need to Order (Force JIT) on the Item Details tab. With this checked, no stock will be allocated for this material and you will need to place a PO for the material.
<br>[[File:NeedToOrder_ForceJIT.png]]

<br>You can set individual inventory items to always Force JIT so you don’t have to check it when adding the item to orders.
Go to the inventory item and check Force JIT (image below)
<br>[[File:ForceJITByDefault.png]]

== Create PO in Inventory Module ==
<br>1. Go to '''Purchase Orders''' in Inventory Module.
<br>2. Click '''New''' and select the '''vendor'''. The vendor information will populate the Vendor tab on Details and Settings.
<br>3. Fill out the rest of the fields on Details and Settings tab.

== Create PO from the inventory item ==
Create a purchase order from the inventory item will generate a PO for the default vendor assigned to the inventory item. (Enter the default vendor in the vendor field on the Ordering Information tab of the inventory item.)

<br>1. Go to the Inventory item you need to place a PO for.
<br>2. Click '''Actions > New Purchase Order'''.
<br>3. SME will jump to a new Purchase with the default vendor for the material in the Vendor tab. 
<br>4. Click the '''PO Items''' tab.
<br>5. Click '''New'''.
<br>6. In the '''Add Items to Order''' window, click [[File:I.png]] next to the Item Name field. (circled in image below).

[[File:AddInventoryToPO.png]]

<br>7. Select the material from the inventory list.
<br>8. Click '''OK'''.
<br>9. Enter any shipping instructions in '''Shipping Notes'''.

[[File:ShippingNOtes.png]]

<br>10. '''Save''' the Purchase Order.
 

== Print or Email the PO ==
#    Click '''Print/ Email'''.
#    To print, select Standard Purchase Order.
#    To email, select Email Standard Purchase Order.

== Create PO for parts below minimum level ==


On each inventory item, you can set a minimum on hand amount.  You can then search your inventory items and compare available and minimum on hand amounts or you can create a PO for your vendor and let SME find items below minimum levels.

#    Go to '''Purchase Orders''' in Inventory Module.
#    Click '''New''' and select the vendor. The vendor information will populate the Vendor tab on Details and Settings. Fill out the rest of the fields on Details and Settings tab as needed.
#    Click '''Actions''' > '''Add from Minimum Level Inventory'''.
#    The inventory items below minimum levels will display. Double click on the items to add them to the PO.
#    Click '''Shipping Notes''' to add shipping notes to the PO.
#    Click '''Save'''.

You can also automatically create all PO's requiring min levels. Note that this method creates all PO for parts below minimum level inventory. It will make the order based on the default vendors for the inventory. Note also, that if you have other un-received PO's it will create a new PO since the parts are still below the min until open POs are received and go into stock. 

<br>[[File:MinLevelPO.png]] 

#    Go to '''Utilities''' module and click '''Utilities'''.
#    Click '''Inventory'''.
#    Click '''Create Minimum Level Purchase Orders'''.
#    Click '''Run It'''.

The PO’s will be generated for you.

<u>'''To print or email the PO:
'''</u>
#    Click '''Print/ Email'''.
#    To print, select Standard Purchase Order.
#    To email, select Email Standard Purchase Order.

== Receiving parts on a PO ==
#    Go to the Purchase Order.
#    Select the '''PO Items''' tab.
#    Select the item on the tab and click '''Receive Item'''.
#    On the '''Receive PO Items''' window:
##        If serialized, enter the serial number on the Receive Stock tab and click '''Add'''. Select the warehouse the parts are going to. Click '''OK'''.
##        If non-serialized, enter the '''Receive Quantity''' on the Receive Stock tab. Select the warehouse the parts are going to. Click '''OK'''.
#    Continue receiving items. When the last item is received, you will be prompted to close the PO.

<br>'''NOTE'''
<br>If you are receiving an item on a PO ''and you enter more than the original quantity'' and click Save you will be presented with the following prompt:
<br> Error - there is a mismatch between the number of items ordered and the number of items received and backordered.

<br>[[File:POMisMatchQty.png]]

<br> If you click Yes it will receive more than was ordered.

== Receive from file for parts on PO ==
SME will allow you to bulk receive parts from an excel file.  This will greatly increase the speed of receiving PO's with lots of items.  Follow these steps:
# Go to the PO you want to receive.
# Create an excel file for the parts you want to receive and save as csv file.  The csv file must be configured exactly like the following:
## First row should include headers:  ItemNumber, SerialNumber, Quantity, Location
## ItemNumbers in first column
## Optional Serial numbers in second column
## Quantity in third column.  For serialized parts this should always be 1.
## Optional location in fourth column.  The location name must exactly match one of your Warehouse/Inventory Locations
## File saved in csv, comma separated value format.  Excel can format in csv by selecting save as and selecting Save as type to Comma Delimited (csv) format.
# One way to get a list of all items on a PO is to use the export to file.  Select PO Items tab and right click in the window to export to excel

== What to do if you receive the wrong parts on a PO ==
If you receive parts on a PO that you shouldn’t have received, if you have the permission to do so in your User Group, you can right click on the PO Item and select '''Reverse Receipt'''.
<br>The permission on the '''User Group is Can reverse receipt PO Items''' on the''' Administrative Clearances''' tab.

[[File:ReverseReceipt.png]]

== How do I delete a PO that has been fully received? ==
You cannot delete a PO that has received items. Use Returns to return the stock you received back to the vendor.


== Shipping Address ==
<h3>For PO created directly in the PO module</h3>
If creating a PO directly in the Purchase Orders module, the address on the shipping tab comes from the address you entered in '''Setup''' > '''Company''' > '''Company Information'''.
<br>- If you want to use a different address for your POs, enter the address in '''Setup''' > '''Company''' > '''Inventory'''.
<br>- If you are creating the PO from a service or install order, and the default warehouse set for the item has an address, the the PO will put the warehouse address in the shipping tab.

<br>[[File:PO_ShippingTab.png]]

<br>If you prefer to ship the material to your customer or one of your warehouses, you can click '''ship to''' and choose a different location.

<br>[[File:ChangeShippingAddress.png]]

<h3>For PO created from a service or install order</h3>
If you are creating a PO from a service order, install order, or itemized invoice using Actions > Create PO for Selected Items, the Shipping tab address will come from the warehouse address for the shipping location.

<br>Make sure your warehouses have an address by going to''' Setup''' module > '''company''' > '''Lists''' > '''Warehouses'''. Select the warehouse and click Edit at the bottom. Enter the address in the window that opens (image below). 
<br>[[File:DefaultLocationAddress.png]]

<h3>Changing the Ship To location on a PO</h3>
If you change the Ship To location on the Shipping tab, you will be prompted with the following question:
<br>“The shipping location has changed. Update line items for new location?”
<br>[[File:ShippingLocationHasChanged.png]]
<br> If you click Yes, when you go to receive the items on the PO, they will default to be received into that new shipping location, shown in the Warehouse field in the image below.
<br>[[File:ChangeShippingLocation_ReceiveItem.png]]

== Next PO Number ==
To set the next PO number SME uses, go to '''Setup''' module > '''Company''' > '''Orders''' section
<br>Click '''Edit'''
<br>Enter the next number you want to use in the '''Next PO #''' field. The next PO # does not come from QB and will have to be entered into SME.
<br>

<br>[[File:EditItemOnPoToChangeQty.png]]

<br>- Click '''Actions''' > '''Add from Minimum Level Inventory''' to add additional items to the PO.

== Create Purchase Order for Parts Below Minimum using Utilities==
If you are tracking stock in multiple warehouse locations including truck warehouses, you can assign each warehouse location a minimum level. There are utilities in SME that will look at all the warehouse minimum levels for each warehouse and create Purchase Orders if stock is below the minimum level. Each warehouse location will need to have a minimum level on it and each item should have a reorder quantity.

<h3>Assign minimum level to each warehouse for inventory items</h3>
- Go to an Inventory item
<br>- Click the '''Stock Tab'''
<br>- If there is an entry on that tab for a warehouse, you can select the line and click '''Edit'''. If the location isn’t added to the inventory item yet, click '''New Stock Location''' to add a location that isn’t already listed on the tab.
<br>[[File:AddStockLocationToAddMin.png]]

<br>- The Inventory Stock Editor window will open.
<br>If you are editing an existing stock location for the inventory item, the Inventory Stock Editor window will open and you will need to enter the minimum level for that location in the '''Min. Level''' field. (image below)
<br>[[File:AddMinLevelForExistinglocation.png]]

<br>If you are adding a new stock location to the inventory item, make sure to select the location in the '''Warehouse''' drop down field. (image below)

<br>-- Locate the '''Add Qty''' field. If you aren’t adding stock to that warehouse, make sure you put '''0''' in the Add Qty field. If you need to add stock to that warehouse, you can enter it in the field. 
<br>-- Click '''OK'''

<br>[[File:AddingNEwStockLocation.png]]

<br>--Click '''Edit''' to edit the stock location and open the Inventory Stock Editor again.
<br>-- Enter the minimum level for that warehouse in the '''Min. Level''' field.
<br>-- Click''' OK'''.

<br>- After you’ve entered the Min. Level for each warehouse location, you can see them listed on the''' Stock Tab'''. Rearrange the columns on the grid so you can see the MinLevel column. (image below)

<br>[[File:ReviewLocationMinLevelOnStockTab.png]]

<h3>Assign reorder quantity to the item</h3>
- On the inventory item, click the '''Ordering Information''' tab
<br>- Enter a '''Reorder Quantity''' (image below). When this item is placed on a PO, this is the quantity that will be order. 

<br>[[File:OrderingInformationTabReorderQty.png]]

<h3>Run the Utility to Create Minimum Level Purchase Orders by Location</h3>
- Go to '''Utilities''' module > '''Utilities'''
<br>- Select '''Inventory'''
<br>- Select '''Create Minimum Level Purchase Orders by Location''' (image below)

<br>[[File:UtilitiesModuleRunMinLevelByLocation.png]]

<br>- Click '''Run It'''
<br>- In the window that opens, select the warehouse location you want to run the utility for. Click '''OK'''.

<br>[[File:SelectLoctionForOrdering.png]]

<br>- When the utility completes, you will be notified how many Purchase Orders were created.
<br>- When viewing the Stock tab on the inventory item, you will see the On PO number reflect the quantity on PO for that location. (image below)

<br>[[File:ReviewOnPOQuantityStockTab.png]]

<br>'''**NOTE**''' when you run the utility, it is not checking to see if there is quantity on PO for that item. If you ran the utility again before you received the item already on a PO, another PO will be generated.

<h3>Run the Utility to Create Minimum Level Purchase Orders</h3>
This utility will check all warehouse locations to see if a PO is needed. The other utilities forces you to choose which location you want to run the utility for.

- Go to '''Utilities''' module > '''Utilities'''
<br>- Select '''Inventory'''
<br>- Select '''Create Minimum Level Purchase Orders'''
<br>- Click '''Run It'''
<br>- Choose a zone if you want or leave blank and all locations will be checked.
<br>- When the utility is complete, a message will pop up with the number of Purchase Orders created. 

<br>'''**NOTE**''' - The utility does not check to see if items are already on Purchase Orders. You must be aware if you run the utility frequently and you haven't received stock on a PO, then the utility would create another PO for the item.



== Changing quantities on PO for items linked to an order ==

Below is a screenshot of a service order with two material items. 
<br>[[File:Order_MaterialOnPO3and1.png]]
<br> Below is the PO these items are linked to
<br>[[File:PO_OrderItemsLinkedTo3and1.png]]

<h3>Increase the quantity of material on a PO</h3>
If you increase the quantity of a material item on the PO, the quantity of stock received over the quantity linked to the service order will go directly to your warehouse stock as available.
<br> In this example, the IV 103920 Lamp was change from 1 to 2 and the 2 were received on the PO.
<br>[[File:PO_IncreaseQuantityAndReceive.png]]
<br>One of the two received went into stock and reserved on the service order.
<br>[[File:PO_ItemReceivedReservedToOrder1.png]]
<br> The additional one added wasn’t associated with a service order so when received it went into stock as Available. It can now be reserved on a service order. 
<br>[[File:AdditionalStockGoesToAvailable.png]]


<h3>Decrease the quantity of material on a PO</h3>
In the example below, the quantity on the KX-TDA30 was changed from 3 to 2 and received
<br>[[File:PO_DecreaseQtyAndReceive.png]]
<br> On the service order you will see that the two were reserved for the material on the order. You will also see the third quantity on the order is split out, holding onto the link status of Has ordered Items. It will need to be placed back on a PO since the link was broken, deleted off the order, or reserve stock for the item.
<br>[[File:OrderMaterialsSplitOUtReserved.png]]
<br> If you need to place that last quantity on a PO, you can: 
<br>- Edit the material.
<br>- Click the Stock Details tab
<br>- Change the Item Status from Has Ordered Items to Has Jit Items.
<br>- Click OK
<br>[[File:ChangeFromHAsOrderedToJIT.png]]
<br> Then you can click '''Actions''' > '''Create PO for Selected Items''' on the service order to create a PO for the item.

== Changing quantities on an order if the items are linked to a PO ==
In this scenario, we have a service order with two material items. Both material items are on a PO and they are linked. (either created from the service order or added to the PO using actions > Add Items from Service). Below will discuss what happens if you increase or decrease the quantity of the material items on the service order when the material is on a linked PO.
<br>[[File:ServiceOrderWithItemsLinkedToPO.png]]
<br>Below is the PO with the two items from the service order
<br>[[File:POWithLinkedItems.png]]

<h3>Increase quantity of material on an order that is linked to a PO</h3>
Open the material item on the order and increase the quantity from 1 to 2. It adds another material line item to order as “Has JIT Items”
<br>[[File:IncreaseMaterialQuantityPastQtyOnPO.png]]

<br>If you need to add that item to an existing PO:

<br>- Go to the PO
<br>- Click '''Actions''' > '''Add Items from service'''
<br>- Select the service order and select the item that needs to be on the PO. (Image below)
<br>[[File:POAddItemsFromService.png]]
<br>The item is added to the PO as shown in image below. When you receive the item, it will be reserved on the service order it is tied to.
<br>[[File:AdditionalItemAddedToPO.png]]

<h3>Decrease quantity of material on an order that is linked to a PO</h3>
<br>- Go to Service Order and open the material 
<br>- Click the Stock Details tab
<br>- Highlight the stock detail (1 in image below)
<br>- click the Delete button at the bottom (2 in image below)
<br>- Change the Quantity at the top (3 in image below)
<br>- Click OK at the bottom of Add Items to Order window.
<br>[[File:DecreaseMaterialItemQuantityWithHasOrderedItemStatus.png]]
<br> You will see the material is showing the correct quantity but since the stock details were released, the Link Status is at Has JIT Items. 
<br>[[File:MaterialLinkStatusChangesToJIT.png]]

<br> The PO still has the quantity of 3. It is no longer linked to the original material detail because it was deleted
<br>[[File:PO_KeepsItemsWithPreviousQuantityNotLinked.png]]

<br>You have two options:
<br>A) Change the quantity on the material on the PO down to the quantity you need. When you receive the stock, it will not be automatically reserved on the service order because the material details were deleted on the material on the order. The stock you receive will go to your warehouse as available. You will need to manually reserve the stock on the service order.

<br>B) Delete the line item on the PO and re-add the correct quantity from the '''Actions''' > '''Add Items From Service''' option to select the order and select the correct material. When the material is added this way, the stock received will be automatically reserved on the service order.
