Duplicate Purchase Order
Access to this feature may only be available with the ‘Complete’ edition. Ask your Wasp representative for details.
You can quickly duplicate a purchase order from the View Purchase Orders screen.
On the View Purchase Order screen, select the purchase order you want to duplicate by clicking on the checkbox next to the PO number.
- Click on the Duplicate button.
- Create Duplicate PO's screen will appear where a duplicate copy of the purchase order will be created.
Order Details Tab
- PO Number - Enter a PO Number for this new purchase order. If you have set up Inventory Cloud to generate a PO number automatically, the field will say "Automatically Assigned" as shown in the image above. Each purchase order is assigned a unique identifier consisting of an alpha-numeric value of up to 30 characters. This number can be manually entered each time you create a new purchase order, or you can create a template that the software will use to generate a number automatically for you. Create the template using the Number Series screen. You can edit an automatically assigned PO number if needed.
- Vendor - Choose the Vendor.
- Email - Enter the email address. It supports multiple email addresses. Separate individual email addresses with commas.
- Ref Number - Enter a reference number for this PO.
- Notes - Enter notes.
- Site Name - Select the site. This is optional, but when creating a purchase order, you can associate it with a site. With site restrictions and assigning orders to a site, the user will only see PO for their site only. It will also carry into the On-Order quantity. For example, a user with access to Site A will not see Site B's purchase orders on the application when they pull up their orders to receive. If the PO is not designated for a specific site, it will show for all sites.
Note: Using Form Customization, you can make the Site field mandatory or required field.
Note: While placing a new purchase order, if the selected site name has Site-Item/category restriction, then the Item Number field will display the items that are not associated with any category and the items that are associated with the category selected in the Site-Item/category restriction. If there is already an item in the queue that does not fall in the current Site-Item/category restriction, then a warning message will appear indicating that "Item-Category is restricted at the selected site.”
