Locating Related Procurement Documents

With both PeopleSoft Payables and Purchasing installed, you can inquire and cross-reference related documents across the procure-to-pay business cycle, to tie all documents together for the same transaction flow. You have quick access to requisitions, purchase orders, receivers, and vouchers/payments associated with the requested voucher or payment ID. You can also see such things as post status, budget check status, match status, procurement group details and gross amount.

Procurement Group Inquiry

You can search for purchase orders by business unit or by business unit and PO number, PO date, Supplier ID or Supplier short name.

To facilitate the identification of procurement items that correspond to individual assets, Purchasing and eProcurement can assign a Procurement Group ID to multiple items that apply to one asset.  As items are received, the new receipt lines display the Procurement Group details associated with the corresponding purchase order line.  The receiving process allocates the received goods and services by asset for integration with Asset Management. The Procurement Group ID field is available in Payables.  When copying purchase order or receipt information to a voucher, the Procurement Group ID is copied to the voucher line.

Note: The system prevents a PO Only copy in Payables for purchase orders that include procurement group fields as this could potentially cause interface issues with Asset Management. If receiving has been performed and the Purchase Order has a procurement group ID, you can copy from the Receipt to a Voucher, since the quantities are allocated to a specific distribution line (one-to-one relationship) and will not cause issues with the Asset Management interface.
