There are multiple ways to create a purchase order. Any of these methods ultimately end-up in the same place, on a Purchase Order in Purchasing. However, depending on the situation at hand, one way may save you time over another.

Create POs from Parts List

1. From your Parts List you can select one or more items

2. Enter a quantity in the ‘Order’ column (or click the ‘Bring to Max’ button to update the ‘Order’ column for all rows)

3. Click the ‘Create POs’ button.

2. Choose ‘Add to Current PO’, or ‘Add New PO’.
