Closing Purchase Orders

Payables closes a purchase order when the quantity billed and the quantity received (if you require receipt on the purchase order shipment) against the purchase order are both greater than or equal to the quantity ordered less the quantity cancelled on the purchase order. Payables displays a warning message if you try to match to a closed purchase order, but you can still complete the match. When you submit Approval, Payables applies the appropriate matching hold(s). You can reopen a closed purchase order in Purchasing by adding a new shipment, over-receiving within your tolerance, or changing the quantity for a shipment.

Payables closes a purchase order shipment when the quantity billed and the quantity received (if you require receipt on the purchase order shipment line) against the purchase order shipment are both greater than or equal to the quantity ordered less the quantity cancelled on the purchase order shipment.

If you use Purchasing with Payables, when you match an invoice to a purchase order, you can indicate that the invoice is the final match to the purchase order. When you submit Approval for a final-matched invoice, Approval permanently closes the matched purchase order.
