Hi Kitty,

Yes all of the above is correct. The PO can be reopened if your configuration allows editing of completed POs. The original lines cannot be reopened. The other issue is that you cannot prorate any misc charges that may come in after you have completed/closed the original PO.

If there is any delay on the timing of the items not included on the orginal receipt then it may be best to set them up as new items on the existing (or a new PO) instead.

If you are not worried about prorating misc charges to the original receipt then the easiest way to deal with this is to do a quick receipt when the other items on the order are received. For the reference you should put the original PO number on it. This assumes that the items will be received shortly.

Then you can combine the original receipt (that you said was complete with the original PO) with this quick receipt. The combined totals will match to the total that is on the vendor's invoice (for both receipts), as part of the invoicing process.

The only drawback is it doesn't record the outstanding POs items that were originally closed out, unless you create or add to the new PO. You can also do this quick receipt for freight or other misc chargers but as you are aware, this will not prorate costs to the regular line items in the original receipt.

Cheers,
Lauren
