Purchase settings
Where to find
Settings are usually located at “Purchase” → “Configuration” → “Settings”.
Parameters that affect purchase orders
The set of parameters depends on your configuration. In practice, purchase behavior is most often affected by:
- purchase order types (and related rules);
- whether receipts are used (Inventory flow);
- whether bills and payments are used (Invoicing flow);
- print templates and rules for sending purchase orders to vendors.
Restrictions when closing/locking a purchase order
In some configurations, restrictions may apply when completing (locking) a purchase order, for example:
- it is forbidden to complete a purchase order if it has active receipts;
- it is forbidden to complete a purchase order if it is not fully received;
- it is forbidden to complete a purchase order if it is not paid in full.
If you encounter such a restriction, check related documents and actual line-level fulfillment.
Templates and sending a purchase order
If sending a purchase order to a vendor is used, you usually configure:
- purchase order print template;
- Topic and email body;
- Copy to (BCC) address.
After configuration, the “Send” action will be available to users in the purchase order card.
