Force close a P/O by date

Purchase Orders occasionally need to be ‘forced closed’ (i.e. back-ordered goods are not going to be shipped from the vendor).  This functionality allows the PO’s to be closed by a date range.  To activate this functionality, the following parameter must be set.  Go to:

 

  • Purchase Order (Module 7)
    • System Management Functions (Task 32)
      • Modify Parameter Files (Sub-task 22)
        • Purchase Entry & PO – General (Option 1)

Look for the parameter:  PO’CLOSE’PASSWORD=

 

By entering a value on the parameter, it activates Sub-task #3 --  Force Close P/O’s by Date Range --  in Purchase Order Entry & Editing (Task 1).  When using this sub-task, the user  will be prompted for the password.  Also a report is created of the date, time, user, date range and PO’s closed.  Contact us to get the details on how to locate and run the report.
