Add New Purchase Order Equipment form

3. Select the 'Equipment Catalog' to be purchased, the 'Ordered Date', input the 'Quantity' of the Equipment and 'Price Per Quantity.'

Note: In the figure above, note the Units and Price Per Quantity fields (indicated with arrows). The Equipment grid will group similar selections together as much as possible. If the Equipment is a "Has Units" item, the Units field will show and that field can be used to set the Unit count. The Quantity is how many each of that Unit count that is being ordered. For example, the User can order 10 boxes of pencils, but how many are in each box: 25, 50, 100? Quantity is the 10, Units is the 25/50/100. When a Units value on a Purchase Order that is different from another record of the same Equipment is set, this tells the system the User wants some boxes of 25 pencils and some other boxes of 50 pencils. This generates separate line items for "boxes of pencils".

As with Units, Price Per Quantity acts the same way. Maybe the Vendor only has 15 boxes of pencils in stock at their normal price, but can special order the additional 30 that is needed, at a different price. The User can enter the 15 at one price, and create another line item for the other 30 at the other price, which results in separate line items. PCR-360 can be configured to use the last received cost for Equipment by setting the PO_EQP_USE_LAST_COST configuration to TRUE.

4. Click the .

The Equipment will now be added to the grid on the Equipment tab. The Purchase Order can be advanced when all Equipment has been added.

If a User accidentally received more Equipment within PCR-360 than actually received (for example, receiving 5 of 10, instead of 3 of 10), a User can "receive" a negative value of that Equipment to correct the error (in the example's case, 'receiving -2).

Once a User begins receiving Equipment on a Purchase Order, new Items can still be added to that Purchase Order. This enables Organizations the ability to receive an item mistakenly sent by a Vendor, decide to keep it, and add it to the current Purchase Order.
