Approve Pending Purchase Orders
Use the Approve Pending Purchase Orders screen to fully open purchase orders that have been saved as pending orders.
You can query pending purchase orders (PO), review them, and change their status to Open, making them eligible to have receipts and/or invoices entered against them. You must make all other purchase order status modifications in the Manage Purchase Orders screen.
This screen can be used by organizations that require formal purchase order approval by a quality control person or a purchasing supervisor, before the purchase orders can be received or invoiced against.
Use this screen after pending purchase orders have been entered.
A search criteria page displays when you open this screen, to let you specify a purchase order to open.
