Purchase Order Processing Types

Hi ​@Andy Haminarivo 

Sharing my findings from a recent Cursor-assisted code/functional search. I hope these insights are beneficial.

Step 1: Create processing types
Step 2: Connect types to master data (defaults on lines)
        Priority for parts and rental parts:
           - Supplier for Purchase Part
           - Purchase Part (General tab)
           - Automatic Order Processing Defaults (supplier + site + purchase group)
           - For no-part lines, only Automatic Order Processing Defaults is used.
           - On Purchase Part, the order processing type drives whether release, conversion, and printing can be automated for that part.
           - You can also enter a type directly on a purchase requisition or purchase order line.
Step 3: Run automatic processing. Use Execute Automatic Order Processing.
Step 4: Prerequisites before the batch runs: Requisitions/POs that need authorization must be authorized first. For EDI: supplier message setup must exist
          For e-mail PDF: supplier contact e-mail, PDF_REPORT_CREATED event, and E-mail action
Effects: matching documents are released, converted, printed/sent/e-mailed per the type’s events. Errors appear on Background Jobs.
