Function documentationProcessing Items in the PO Worklist

 

The supplier can use queries in the purchase order worklist to edit, confirm, and reject purchase order items.

The customer can use queries in the purchase order worklist to display purchase order items rejected by the supplier, and to manually approve purchase order item confirmations which are not in line with the request data of the item.

Features

Confirming Items with a Maximum of One Request Schedule Line and One Confirmation Schedule Line

In the default queries, the supplier processes items containing a maximum of one request schedule line and one confirmation schedule line (of type Confirmed) on item level.

Confirming Items with Multiple Schedule Lines

In the default queries, the supplier processes the data in each schedule line for an item using a pop-up window, and then saves and publishes the whole item on item level. The supplier accesses this pop-up window by clicking the hyperlink in the Requested:Confirmed column for the item. The pop-up window displays all requested schedule lines for the item and any existing confirmation schedule lines of type Confirmed. The pop-up also shows some data from the purchase order item, such as product and price.

Note Note

This pop-up window does not display ASN-Confirmed confirmation schedule lines.

End of the note.
Rejecting Items

The supplier can reject a purchase order item by selecting the Reject checkbox and then saving and publishing the item.

Confirming Data as Requested

The supplier can confirm all the data for an item as it appears in the request schedule line by selecting the Confirm As Requested checkbox.

Displaying Notes

You can display notes for purchase order items by clicking the hyperlink in the Notes column. The number of notes for the PO header, the specific PO item, and for the schedule lines for the PO item, is displayed in the Notes column.

File Transfer

You can process the data that you download offline, and upload your modifications back into the system. For more information, see File Transfer.
