Purchase Orders

On the Purchases for invoicing screen you can get information about your purchases that are not yet invoiced. You can also filter the results based on different criteria. The screen is divided into three main sections: Header (1), Filter (2) and Result (3).

Within the Header (1) you can find a drop down menu that allows you to create a new Purchase Inquiry, Purchase order or a Purchase order reversal.

There’s also a blue magnifier button that’s used to show and hide the Filter section –

When the Filter (2) section is shown, on the left side you will find three buttons – Purchase orders, Purchase order rows and Items. They change the way you see the results below in the Result (3) section.

  • If Purchase orders is selected, your result section shows a row for each purchase
  • If Purchase orders rows is selected, your result section shows a row for each particular item within a Purchase order. If three different items were purchased within the same purchase order, you will see three different rows in the result section for that same Purchase order.
  • If Items is selected, your result section shows a row for each item that has been purchased within any Purchase order and shows the aggregated quantity of the item sales.

The rest of the buttons within the Filter section allow you to filter based on something specific like a Date range, Office, Supplier type, Supplier, Status, Trader, Status. Most of them are drop down menus where you can select your filters. The different options are described in the table below:

OptionMeaning
Date range (From, To)Allows you to filter your results based on the time the purchase happened
OfficeAllows you to choose from which office the purchase order was made. If a person is not given permission to work with a particular office, they won’t be able to see that office in the menu
Supplier type Allows you to choose from the supplier types that are already registered in your database
StatusAllows you to check the status of the orders you want to see – if they are Confirmed, Active or Cancelled. The rows in the Result section are colored differently based on the Status. Confirmed orders show green (nothing more to be done for this order), pending orders are black (something is yet to happen with that order) and cancelled orders are grey.
TraderAllows you to filter based on the person who made the order
SupplierAllows you to choose from the suppliers that are already registered in your database
TypeAllows you to check Purchase orders, Purchase orders reversals or Reversed Purchase orders and then you will see only results of this type. 

After choosing the filters you want, you can use the grey magnifier button – , to apply your filters and get your results. Based on your Filter (2) section, the Result (3) section will be visualized differently. 

When the Result filter is set to Purchase orders, the Result (3) section will show you the purchases that happened based on your filter criteria, one purchase on each row. By default, the system will only show you the most used columns:
