Purchase Orders

General Overview

The Purchase Order module allows you to create, edit and/or delete purchase orders. Once goods are received you may update inventory quantities and fill shortages in the Order Entry module. Invoices received for purchase orders may be automatically transferred to the Accounts Payable module where they become available for payment selection.

You must create your Vendor and Inventory records prior to using the Purchase Order module. 

VAST maintains a complete history for all system generated purchase orders. History orders may be reviewed in this module.
