Export eProcurement PO Receipts

Use the Export eProcurement PO Receipts application to export purchase order (PO) receipt data from Costpoint into a fixed-length ASCII text file that can be uploaded into the eProcurement system, where it can use the PO receipt data to create purchase order receipts and update PO statuses.

Only receipts for POs generated by eProcurement will be exported.

When the export process is executed, the system locates summary receiving information from the PO line for each selected receipt. The application will search for receipt lines in purchase orders where the PO Header record has a procurement type of "EP" based on the warehouse, receipt, and purchase order selection options on the screen. No reports will be generated from this process.

There are two ways to work with export files in Costpoint:

  • You can export the file to an Alternate File Location.
  • You can export the file to the Costpoint database.

If you decide to use the first option, click in the File Location field to select the alternate file location to which you want to save the file. If you choose the second option, leave the File Location field blank when you export the file.
