PO Required for A/R Orders (D79)
Purpose: Use this screen to define whether to require a purchase order number for accounts receivable orders in Order Entry.
Yes/no field: Select this field if you require a purchase order number from your accounts receivable customers. An accounts receivable payment type is defined as payment category 3 in the Pay Type table. See Working with Pay Types (WPAY). Accounts receivable payment methods also require a Bill To customer be defined for the order. See Assigning a Billing Address in Order Entry.
If you select this field, and the operator does not enter a purchase order number on either the order header or order recap screen for an A/R order, the Missing Purchase Order window opens. Also, if you receive an A/R order through the order API and it does not specify a purchase order number, the system flags the error and puts the order in error status.
Leave this field unselected if you do not want to require a purchase order number for accounts receivable orders.
