How Purchase Order by Wizard works
Purchase Orders by Wizard allows you to select specific supply items in a job or job section and create a purchase order for the selected supply items. Additionally, you can create multiple purchase orders if you prefer to group some supply items together.
...
In this example, we have a job section with four supply items and we want to create a purchase order only for the first two supplies.
2. Click Create Purchase Orders by Wizard which is located below the supply items.
3. Select the supply items by ticking the corresponding boxes located on the leftmost column. You also have the option to manually change the quantity if necessary.

Note: There is a setting that you can enable or disable that affects how your purchase orders are combined or never combined. For more information, please access How to Combine Purchase Orders user guide. |
