Automatic PO Creation Method (H92)

Purpose: Use this screen to specify how to create purchase orders based on the suggested order quantity on the Inventory Status & Projection Report (ISRP).

Code field: Enter the code that indicates how to break out purchase orders that you create at the Create Purchase Orders Screen in Inventory Status/Projection Inquiry. You can use this screen to generate purchase orders based on your projected requirements for one or more offers. The system calculates this forecast as part of generating the Inventory Status and Projection Report.

You must specify a creation method in order to create purchase orders based on your projected requirements:

• VENDOR = include all items with the same Primary vendor on the same purchase order

• ITEM = include SKUs of a single item on the same purchase order; create a separate purchase order for each item

• SKU = create a separate purchase order for each SKU

See Generating Purchase Orders based on Projected Requirements for more information.

Leave this field blank if you will not be using the Create Purchase Orders Screen to generate purchase orders. You will not be able to advance to this screen in Inventory Status/Projection Inquiry.
