Change Purchase Order Type

Use the Change Purchase Order Type screen to change an existing purchase order (PO) to a subcontractor agreement PO.

Changing of PO type is allowed only for existing PO types of Purchase Order and Blanket Order, and the change in PO type of a blanket order automatically changes the PO type of all releases associated with it. Change of PO type occurs regardless of PO status, or whether receipts/vouchers have been created. PO change history files are also automatically updated. If you are unauthorized for a PO type (Subcontractor Agreement or Subcontractor Agreement Blanket), an error occurs. An error also occurs if there are standard texts (header or line) that are not defined for use with a PO type of Subcontractor Agreement, Subcontractor Agreement Blanket, or Subcontractor Agreement Release.
