PU3 - Purchase Order (Quote) : This is a purchase order that you can send to your vendor for order quantity and cost confirmation

PU4 - Purchase Order (Whs) : This document can be use when you are using the Warehouse management system of Phoenix. This will show where the products are located in the store.

PU5 - Purchase Order (Whs, No Price) :  This form will show the same criteria as PU4 but cost will not be printed.

PU6 - Purchase Order (Price 1) : This form shows Price 1 (Retail) and no cost.

PU7 - Purchase Order (Whs, Price 1) : This will show the same criteria as PU4 but will print Price 1 (Retail) instead of cost.

PUR - Purchase Order : This is a regular purchase order that will show the product number, description, quantity, discount & cost.

When creating the screen parameters you may select multiple Events, Options and Jobs if required.

There are also two options to consider when setting up the Purchasing module.  These options are as follows.

PAY- Number of Days for Booking: The number specified here will determine how many days from receipt, bookings become current.  When orders become current the order quantity will be considered in product re-ordering (suggested order) calculations.

PAY- Cost Increasing Percentage: The percentage specified here will act as a threshold for cost changes.  In the event a cost change, as measured by percentage, exceeds this threshold the item will be sent to the Price Change by Cost module. 

These last 2 options may be found on the System Options 2 TAB, found in the System Menu under Maintenances - Company Maintenance.
