Creating Purchase Orders

You can create purchase orders to receive products into the facility. You can only add items that are assigned to a vendor to the purchase order. Leave the P.O. Number field blank as SimVen automatically assigns a purchase order number.

  1. Click Warehouse, click Purchase Orders, and then click Purchase Orders.
  2. Enter or select the Vendor ID.
  3. To see all items carried by the vendor on the purchase order, click Show All Items Carried.
  4. To individually add items to the purchase order:
    1. Click Add Items to PO, search for and select the items to order, and then click OK.
    2. Repeat Step 4-a until the appropriate items appear on the list.
  5. To assign items to the vendor:
    1. Click Add Item For Vendor, and then click the Add Items button on the Vendor Merchandise List – Add/Edit dialog box.
    2. Click the Item # column heading, select the item you want to assign to the vendor, and then click OK.
    3. Repeat Steps 5-a and 5-b to assign multiple items to the vendor.
    4. To delete an item from the vendor’s list, select an item and then click Delete Line Item.
    5. To close the dialog box and return to the Purchase Order screen, click Close Panel.
  6. Enter the Quality to order for the relevant items on the purchase order, and if the price shown differs from the purchase price, update the Price.

    Look at the pieces per transfer unit or PPT value when determining the quantity to transfer. If you transfer a large quantity (more than 100,000 pieces), contact Oracle Customer Support.

  7. Click Print Purchase Order.
