Define a Document Style for Outside Processing

You can create a new document style for purchasing transactions for outside processing items.

You can't change the delivered document style for purchasing transactions for outside processing items. To define new document styles, use the Manage Document Styles task in the Setup and Maintenance work area, in the Procurement Foundation functional area.

To define a new document style for outside processing:

1. Enter a name and description for the document style, and set the status to Active.

2. Select the Purchase Bases: Goods, Services or Both.

3. Set the Outside Processing Enabled option to Yes.

   The Outside Processing Enabled, Consignment Terms Enabled, and Configuration Ordering Enabled options are mutually exclusive. You can't enable more than one of them in a document style.

4. Set the Line Types: All or Specified.

5. In the Purchase Order section enter the Display Name.

6. In the Blanket Purchase Agreement and Contract Purchase Agreement sections, you can optionally enable the document style for those purchasing document types. Also enter display names for them. For blanket agreements you can also define whether or not price breaks are allowed.

For document styles having outside processing enabled, you can't disable the Outside Processing Enabled option if any purchasing document is using the style.
