Approve a Purchase Order

There are several status levels for a purchase order:

  • Approved – the purchase order has been reviewed and approved by the appropriate people.
  • Posted – the purchase order is ready to be ordered from the supplying company.
  • Received – the purchase order has been processed and received, equipment that was requested is now in stock.

To place a purchase order into Approved status open the purchase order and click the ‘Approved’ checkbox. Permissions can be set to prevent unauthorized users from approving purchase orders. PO limits are set on a per operator basis that determine how much a given operator is allowed to order.
