PO version 8.1B (110325)

I occasionally have to receive partial POs. Is there any way to combine POs instead of manually deleting or updating each line on a PO?

Thank you.

Hi Kristin

Select one of the POs (it doesn't matter which one) and click on Receipt. On the Header tab at the bottom left you will see a button that says Combined Receipt. Click on it. If there are any other open POs with the same primary vendor, you will see the list of open POs. You can (one by one) include those other POs in with this receipt, and when you go to the Detail tab you will see all of the details from the various POs as if they were on one PO.

Also, the same applies for situations when you receive 1 invoice for multiple receipts. The same Combined Inv/Adj function on the header works for combining receipts for the same vendor into a single invoice.

You might think that multiple receipts generating a single invoice doesn't happen very often, but when used with the receipt error correction process (ie. negative quick receipts), you will quickly find the combine Inv/adj (for combining receipts) easily matches up to the vendor's invoice, without having to do manual inventory cost and quantity adjustments.
