Create a Purchase Order

.2.1.9 Create Purchase Order

.2.1.9.1 Complete Order Type
The order entry process is different for Purchase Orders or for Sales Orders:

1. A purchase order is made to an established provider, usually in a business-to-business (B2B) relationship.
2. Agreements will be in place regarding many of the details which would have to be obtained from a sales order customer.
3. Payment methods are already determined for the purchase order provider.

These PO details must be in place through entries made in the Party Manager and the Accounting Manager before order entry can begin on a Purchase Order.

.2.1.9.2 Purchase Order Entry - Initial Screen
This screen confirms the party for the order, gives you the chance to change the party, and a place to set a currency for the order if different from the default.
NOTE: To move forward from this screen through the order entry process, you must click on the [Select One] link.

.2.1.9.3 Complete Product Store fields

.2.1.9.3.1 Product Store field
