Purchase Order Types

In the Purchasing application, you can create three types of purchase orders: standard, service, and blanket.

You specify the purchase order type in the Type field on the General tab of the Purchase Orders form. After you save a completed purchase order, the purchase order's type displays after its number in the upper left corner of the Purchase Orders form. The purchase order number and type also display in Purchasing lookup lists.

Status Codes

All purchase orders and release orders have status codes that show their current state of completion.
