Raise New Purchase Order

Purchase orders can be raised either explicitly or implicitly in Bookmine. To explicitly raise a new PO go to the Purchase Order Main or Details forms and invoke the New (Alt N) command

POs are implicitly raised as a result of (I) placing special orders for items from the Point of sale, Stock or Contacts main form (ii) placing orders directly from the Suppliers list of items supplied or (iii) from the list of suppliers who supply any given item (iv) by clicking the Order Now button on any item in the replenishment interface

To explicitly raise a purchase order from the purchase order main or details form the steps involved are:

• selecting a supplier, (if supplier does not exist create a new Supplier, and supply conditions)

• adding the items to include and

printing or emailing the completed order.

You can have as many pending (active) POs as there are suppliers in your database.
