Hi IFS community,
We have a few PO´s which are open. One of our departments has asked us to close them because the supplier isn´t going to deliver them us.
How do we change the PO status to closed? Currently the PO´s status is received andit has part order lines. We don´t want to receive them via register purchase order arrival tab as it will cause problems in inventory transactions history when preparing the stock count.
Please could you help us out on this?
You can close from the header:
or the line level:
Hi,
Yes, you can do what needs to be done. But what needs to be done depends on a given order line status.
For example, if a given order line is partially received you can easily close the line. No need to change PO quantity (for example order 10 receive 6). Just close the line.
If a given order line has no receipt, it can be canceled.
The clean-up of the order lines will then change the state of the PO header.
Go forward you can change the automatic close process. Depending on goods ordered you may never expect to receive exactly as ordered. Example order 100, supplier sends 99, you can establish an allowed tolerance, so the order line closes automatically with a 99 receipt.
