Use this screen to remove eligible purchase order (PO) data from the "live" purchasing tables and place it into history tables. When archived, POs are no longer visible on the screen when viewing PO history information. If applicable, the purchase order or PO line's CIS Code and CIS Withholding line flag for the selected range is copied from the PO tables to the PO history tables. Blanket POs with existing open releases cannot be archived as well as POs with Retain PO check box selected on the Manage Purchase Orders screen.
Archiving occurs at the PO header level. All or none of the POs (or blanket releases) must be archived. The archive selection criteria are:
The PO Header Order Date must be less than the Order Date Cutoff (line order dates are not referenced);
The status of the PO Header must be closed, system closed, or void;
The PO ID must be within the PO Selection criteria.
Use the fields in this block to create a new parameter ID or to retrieve a previously saved parameter ID. A parameter ID represents a set of screen selection parameters. After you have saved a parameter ID and its related parameters, you can retrieve them using Query.
You can use the retrieved parameters to produce reports and run processes more efficiently and with greater consistency. The saved parameters are also useful and necessary when you want to run the process as part of a batch job. Many users save a unique set of parameters for each different way they run a report or process. When you select a previously saved parameter ID or parameter description, the associated saved screen selection parameters automatically display as selection defaults. The page setup and print options are also included in the saved parameter ID if there are any. You can change any of the associated selection defaults as necessary.
Enter, or click to select, a parameter ID of up to 15 alphanumeric characters. Choose characters for your parameter ID that help identify the type of selections you made in the screen, such as PERIOD or QUARTERLY.
When you save your record, all the selections made in the screen are stored with the parameter ID. Later, you can retrieve the parameter using Query.
You can use the parameter to run the process more efficiently because you can select the parameter ID with its previously defined screen selections. After the default selections display in the screen, you can override the defaults.
Enter, or click to select, a parameter description of up to 30 alphanumeric characters.
