- PURCHASE ORDER STATUS CODE

- Using this code allows you to flag items as posted on order, back
- ordered, missing or deleted from your purchase order. Then, when you
- RECEIVE your purchase order, you will be able to exclusively receive
- stock from On Order to On Hand based upon the item's Order Status
- Code.
-
- PURCHASE ORDER STATUS CODE LEGEND
- [_] A blank space means that this is a suggested order only. The item
- has not been POSTED to the Master Data File.
-
- [P] This item has been POSTED. The On Order field in the Master Data
- File will include the quantity on order for this item.
-
- [B] mark a [P]osted item as back ordered with the "B" key.
-
- [?] mark missing items, shortages or late back orders with the "?"
- key. This gives two levels for flagging back ordered items.
-
- [D] once an item has been posted On Order, it can only be removed from
- the Master Data File with this Delete Item Status Code. Actual
- deletion takes place in the RECEIVE Purchase Orders menu.
-
- [X] The item can not be found by its Control Number. If you changed
- the control number while the item was on order then use the [X]Receive
- by stock number function in the RECEIVE menu. The [X] could also mean
- that you deleted the item in the master file after posted an order.
-
- ORDER QUANTITY
- This field shows the amount of stock that is to be ordered. On
- computer-generated orders, this quantity will be in multiples of the
- case quantity that you entered in the Master Data File. On multiple
- case orders, partial case quantities are rounded up if over one-half
- a case is needed.
-
- You may accept this Order Quantity as is, change it, or delete the
- whole item from the Purchase Order. Use the F7 key to delete.
