Create purchase orders with supplier validation

To create purchase orders with supplier validation, follow these steps:

1. Select the Search icon , enter Purchase Orders, and then choose the related link.
   The Purchase Orders page opens.
2. On the action bar, select New to create a new purchase order.
3. In the Vendor No. field, select the vendor.
4. On the Lines FastTab, in the Item No. field, select an item.

If enforcement point is set to On Entry, the system validates the supplier approval immediately. If the vendor-item combination is not approved, an error displays preventing line creation. If enforcement point is set to On Release, the system displays a warning but allows line creation.

5. Complete the remaining purchase order fields as needed.
6. On the action bar, select Release to release the purchase order.

Regardless of the enforcement point setting, the system always validates supplier approvals when you release the order. If any lines reference unapproved vendor-item combinations, an error displays preventing release.
